Description

This bridge, located approximately 60 metres to the north-east of Cragg Cottage, dates from the early 19th century and is constructed of dressed stone. It features three segmental arches with long cutwaters between them, which are slotted for sluices. The bridge has a straight band and parapets above. It is associated with drainage works that were carried out following the enclosure in 1815. The drainage ditch that the bridge spans is now silted up.
