Description

Rowdeford Bridge is a road bridge over Summerham Brook, built in 1771 and later repaired and widened in 1815. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features three shallow arches with triple keystones, a raised band, and a plain parapet, which has been altered on the east side. The west parapet displays the date 1771 on the roadside and 1815 on the riverside. The bridge also marks the boundary of Bromham parish.
