Description

Meadow Road Bridge is a canal overbridge built around 1792 for the Trent Navigation Company. It is constructed of brick, partly rendered, and features an ashlar parapet with a rusticated string course. The bridge has a single stilted asymmetrical arch that spans the canal and towpath, with an ashlar soffit. The curved parapet wall is topped with gabled coping and has four chamfered square piers. On the south side, there are two half-round guard irons. This bridge crosses the Beeston Cut, which was built by the Trent Navigation Company in connection with Jessop's Nottingham Canal between 1792 and 1796.

Local climate

Meadow Road Bridge 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 83% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 85% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 66% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 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.
