Description

The footbridge over the River Devon is an early 19th-century pedestrian bridge made of brick. The east side of the bridge shares a common wall with adjacent garden walls, which are not included in the listing. It features a single segmental arch that spans the river, with two holes in the spandrels that allow passage through the bridge to each side. There is a partial parapet over the arch, with iron railings filling the gaps. Raking walls extend to the north and south, supported by sloping buttresses at intervals.

Local climate

Footbridge sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 84% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 90% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 67% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
