Description

The Tramway Bridge is a Grade II listed structure built around 1841. It is a single arch bridge made of coursed gritstone blocks, featuring a prominently projecting roll moulding at the top of a stilted semi-circular archway. Above the arch, there is a low parapet constructed from massive gritstone blocks with channelled faces. The bridge has sloped curved abutment walls at both ends, topped with flat copings. This bridge was part of the Crich tramroad, which was built by George Stephenson in 1841 to connect the Crich quarry with lime kilns at Ambergate.

Local climate

Tramway Bridge receives an average of 830 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 53% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 59% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 40 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 77% of listed buildings. Of these, 21 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.
