Description
Eashing Bridges is a historic bridge with two spans over two channels of the River Wey, dating from the 13th century. It was likely constructed by the monks of Waverley Abbey. The bridge is made of local rubble stone, with thin slabs of Bargate stone set in mortar forming the voussoirs over the arches. The top of the bridge is made of 18th-century brick and lacks a parapet, but there are 20th-century wooden posts and railings. The east span has three arches, while the west span has four. The upstream side features pointed cutwaters, and the downstream side has rounded cutwaters, which are very rare. Eashing Bridges is also designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
