Description

Bridge in a ‘wild garden’ built between 1855 and 1858.

MATERIALS: coursed and squared limestone rubble.

PLAN: the bridge spans a chasm located in the ‘wild garden’ to the west of the Loggia and Panel Garden.

EXTERIOR: the substantial bridge has a semicircular single span. Large blocks of stone with chisel-draughted margins alternate with the prominent voussoirs which project beyond the archway, and the stones of the soffit have a punched finish. The bridge has a low parapet surmounted by six large plain piers of roughly finished artificial stone, through which a wooden handrail is threaded. The piers at either end have flat square caps.
