Description

Eel Pie Bridge is a road bridge dating from the early 17th century, with 20th-century additions and alterations. It is constructed from ashlar, concrete, some brick, and cast iron. The bridge features a pair of 17th-century triangular ashlar arches with a single central cutwater, all set within a 17th-century ashlar surround. On either side, there are single projecting 20th-century ashlar walls that support single 20th-century ashlar piers. Above the arches, a band of blue brick is present, into which are set four 20th-century concrete girders. Each girder has a single concrete pier rising from it, supporting a low concrete parapet. Between the piers, there are cast iron railings that terminate at either end in larger 20th-century ashlar piers.

Local climate

Eel Pie Bridge sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 93% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 54% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
