Description
A cast iron bridge of c.1820, built following Humphry Repton's proposals for Hewell Grange.
MATERIALS AND PLAN The bridge is constructed of cast iron and is orientated north-east to south-west.
DESCRIPTION The bridge crosses a small section of water from the lawns adjacent to the early C18 house at Hewell Grange, giving access to the small island in the lake.
It is a single span structure with two parapets on each side which consist of slender iron railings. There are thicker posts at each end with ball finials, and paired posts at the centre of the bridge, where there would originally have been gates, these now lost, although the bases for the stanchions remain.
