Bridge To Artificial Lake

The bridge to the artificial lake at Hackwood Park is an early 19th-century structure featuring three low cambered arches that rest on battered piers. It has side buttresses and retaining walls. A continuous, slightly-projecting band runs below the parapet, which is capped above a single cavetto moulding. The parallel parapets widen beyond the arches and terminate at an angled section that finishes on a circular pier. The exterior is finished in stucco over a brick structure. Inside the arches, there is a retaining wall that creates a deeper north elevation, which once reflected in the artificial lake on the south side.
