Description

South Bridge, dated 1877, is a structure that has been rebuilt as a single reinforced concrete span. It retains its original ornamental cast iron parapets, ashlar piers with pedimented capitals and sunk panels, and hammer dressed stone flanking walls at angles, except on the north-west side, which are coped and ramped to the piers.

Local climate

South Bridge receives an average of 800 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 54% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 74% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 19 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 80% of listed buildings. Of these, 7 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.
