Description

This is a footbridge over the River Witham, located on the west side of the kitchen garden at Easton Park, dating from around 1840. The bridge is constructed of ashlar and features two basket arches with a triangular central cutwater. The walkway is ramped up, with a set of steps to the left. At the center of the bridge, there are corbelled out central bays that include a plaque. The sides of the bridge are adorned with a pierced balustrade featuring a strapwork design. At each end, there are tall square pillars with cornices topped by orbs. Additionally, there are two urns at the base of the steps. This bridge was built as part of the formal garden of Easton Hall, the residence of the Cholmeley family.
