Description
Three Shire Heads Bridge is a bridge, probably built in the late 18th century, made of gritstone rubble. It features plain voussoirs of varying thickness, supported by a narrow projecting stone band, and has a deep segmental arch. The stone parapets do not have copings. Originally designed for pack horses, the bridge was initially only 4 feet wide but was later widened to 6 feet on the north side. Recently, a concrete roadway has been added. The bridge is located at the junction of Cheshire, Derbyshire, and Staffordshire and is listed primarily as a landmark.
