Description
A bridge over the River Leam, built in the C15 with later alterations, widened in the mid-C20, altered and partly reconstructed in 2000.
MATERIALS: sandstone ashlar.
DESCRIPTION: the bridge has long approaches, with two spans over the river and a flood-arch to either side. It is built of sandstone ashlar with segmental-pointed arches of two splayed orders over the stream, the splays dying out on the cutwater and on the abutments, which have been splayed to correspond with the cutwater. The flood-arches, which are similar to those across the stream, have been treated in the same manner by splaying their abutments. The low parapet wall shows evidence of periodic rebuilding, to the west side partly in red brick.
