Description

Wye Bridge is a bridge built in 1638, with repairs made in 1684 and alterations in 1881. It is constructed of stone and features an iron roadway. The bridge has five round-headed arches and two V-shaped pointed cutwaters positioned upstream and downstream. The original parapet was removed in 1881 when the cantilevered iron roadway was installed. A stone inscription recording its construction in 1638 and repair in 1684 is now located in the Church of St Gregory and St Martin.

Local climate

Wye Bridge sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 81% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 51% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
