Description

The Maud Hales Bridge is a bridge dating from around 1416, constructed by the Abingdon Guild of the Holy Cross. It was widened and partly rebuilt around 1927. The bridge is made of squared uncoursed stone and features three segmental pointed arches along with a plain parapet. It serves as a continuation of Abingdon Bridge and is designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument.

The Maud Hales Bridge sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 78% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 69% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 59% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.
