Description

Grange Bridge is a road bridge that was rebuilt in the early 19th century. It is constructed of slate rubble and features a double continuous design over two arms of the River Derwent. Both arms are of single width and single span, with humped backs. The arches are made with thin slate voussoirs and are topped with a solid parapet that has rubble coping.

Local climate

Grange Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,500 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 98% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 97% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 53 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 94% of listed buildings. Of these, 31 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.
