Description

Dale Bridge is a road bridge built around 1840 for the North Midland Railway Company. It is constructed from massive ashlar and rock-faced gritstone. The bridge features a double arch design with shallow segmental arches, framed by rusticated voussoirs. Above the arches, there is a boldly projecting continuous roll moulding, along with a massive rock-faced masonry parapet that is topped by a deep projecting coping with chamfered edges. The parapet walls have splayed ends that terminate in low circular piers.

Local climate

Dale Bridge receives an average of 780 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 60% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 70% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 39 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 75% of listed buildings. Of these, 20 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
