Highnams Farm Bridge (MLN111115)

MATERIALS: Pennant stone throughout, squared and coursed on the faces and soffit, ashlar for voussoirs and the copings. The square and coursed stone is uncommonly small, almost brick sized. Some replacement engineering brick and render scored as stone.

DESCRIPTION: depressed, four-centred arch with a span of 12ft (4m) and simple chamfered profile terminating at the footings in chamfer stops, although all are buried except for the east on the up side (north) face. Arch soffit and carriageway walls unaltered stone. Very low parapet, well below the level of the embankment. Plain raked wing walls project perpendicular to the bridge, sloping down to terminating dwarf piers. Stone coping on the south (Down) wing walls; on the north (Up) face and wing-walls the coping has been replaced by engineering brick.
