Description

Kelham Bridge is a road bridge built in 1857. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features five segmental arches of varying sizes. The bridge has four canted ashlar-faced piers, chamfered ashlar soffits, and hood moulds. A chamfered string course runs along the structure, and there are corbelled ashlar pedestrian refuges. The coping is made of plain ashlar, although some parts have been renewed.

Local climate

Kelham Bridge sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 92% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 57% 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.
