Bridge At Approximately 150 Metres East Of Chyverton House

The bridge located approximately 150 metres east of Chyverton House was built around 1780 for John Thomas. It is constructed from coursed killas, featuring a killas parapet string, a brick arch, brick parapets, and dressed granite copings. This single span humped-back bridge has wider approaches at both ends and a segmental arch with brick voussoirs. Below the parapets, there is a stone string, and the parapet copings are square-edged. This bridge is a complete and unaltered 18th-century structure, serving as the main architectural feature in a landscaped garden that retains much of its original 18th-century planting and design. It was designed as a carriageway bridge over a dammed stream and as an ornamental element in a planned informal garden that predominantly features native or long-established species of trees.
