Description

Isel Bridge is a road bridge built in 1812, replacing an earlier bridge from 1691 on the same site. It is constructed of mixed calciferous and pink sandstone and features three segmental arches supported by two piers with splayed cutwaters. The bridge has a solid parapet with saddle-back coping. Part of this bridge lies within Setmurthy parish.

Local climate

Isel Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,390 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 96% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 43 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 84% of listed buildings. Of these, 22 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.
