Description
The road bridge and associated enclosure walls, which comprise the sheepwash, date from the early 19th century. Constructed from ashlar and coursed rubble Coal Measures Sandstone, the flat road bridge features a massive flagged base supported by a substantial central masonry pier, which has pointed ends to form cutwaters. The north-western end of this pier and the lining walls of the stream channel are grooved to accept stop planks, allowing for the creation of a pond for the sheepwash. The north-west parapet of the bridge connects to twin curved walls that extend from either end of the bridge on its north-western side, forming small walled enclosures with half-round copings on each side of Tricket Brook. At the north-eastern end of the bridge, a stone setted path leads from the lane onto a setted ramp that exits the sheepwash. Each enclosure wall features a narrow gateway onto the lane.
