Description

Ryeford Bridge is a Grade II listed single-span bridge built primarily of handmade red bricks, with coursed and dressed limestone on the west face. It features a semi-circular arched opening. The west side showcases coursed limestone up to an inclined stone band, above which is a brick parapet with plain stone coping that appears to have been rebuilt in the second half of the 20th century. The east face is constructed of brick and includes a flush keystone that interrupts the projecting drip mould, along with a brick parapet. The underside of the bridge, which reveals different phases of construction, is also made of brick. The gently curved wing walls end in plain pilasters topped with pyramidal caps.

It experiences an average of 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 67% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
