Description
Trent Bridge is a road bridge built in 1871 and widened in 1926, designed by M. O. Tarbotton. It features cast iron work by Handyside of Derby, along with rockfaced ashlar and brick. The bridge has three spans and includes two pointed cutwaters with clustered granite shafts. Each side has ornate foliate corbels that support canted pedestrian refuges with blind arcading. The segmental spans are adorned with pierced spandrels, a dentillated sill, and a pierced iron balustrade. There is a single lamp standard in the center of each bay. The southeast side has three half-round flood arches with moulded soffits. At each end, there are pairs of square pylons featuring coats of arms and moulded square caps. The curved approach walls have a heavy moulded string course and moulded copings.
Local climate
Trent 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 86% of listed buildings.
It experiences an average of 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
