Description
A three-arched, stone road bridge, built between 1763-1770 by Stephen Wright for the First Duke of Newcastle-under-Lyme.
MATERIALS AND PLAN: the bridge is built of ashlar and is orientated on a south-west to north-east axis with splayed abutment walls at both ends.
DESCRIPTION: the bridge arcs towards the centre above three unequal semi-circular arches with reeded soffits, raised architraves and projecting fluted keystones. The taller central arch is bordered by plain pilasters supported by octagonal cutwaters with domed tops. Flanking the outer pair of arches are rusticated advanced piers containing semi-circular headed niches and blank semi-circular headed panels with keystones. The balustraded top sits on a dentil cornice. The swept ends to the bridge have balustrades with moulded coping. These terminate in circular abutment piers with moulded plinths and domed caps.
