Description

Grendon Bridge is a Grade II* listed bridge, likely dating from the 15th century. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar and features four chamfered arches, each with a hood mould and cutwaters on both sides. The bridge has coped parapets, although some sections are missing. The eastern arch is round, and the bridge has long abutments.
