Description
The road bridge located 20 meters south-southwest of Reed Bridge was built around 1770. It spans Todd Brook and is similar in design, though smaller, to the main turnpike road bridge that carries the Macclesfield Road (A5002). The bridge is constructed from coursed, squared sandstone rubble and features a segmental arch supported by low piers, with plain rubble weathering. It has a simple parapet with flat coping that extends into very short wing walls. This bridge was likely built by the Macclesfield Bridge Turnpike Trust around 1770 to serve as an accommodation bridge, providing local farm traffic with an alternative route to the turnpike bridge.
