Description
Rowdeford Bridge is a road bridge over Summerham Brook, built in 1771 and later repaired and widened in 1815. The bridge is constructed of ashlar and features three shallow arches, each with triple keystones. It has 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. This bridge also marks the boundary to Bromham parish.
