Grinton Bridge

Grinton Bridge is a road bridge over the River Swale, constructed in the late 17th century, late 18th century, and 19th century. It is built of rubble and ashlar stone and features three semi-circular arches. Triangular cutwaters rise to canted buttresses that contain pedestrian retreats. The upstream side of the bridge, built in the late 17th century, is made of rubble, with the northernmost arch having an irregular shape, while the other two arches have late 18th century voussoirs and cutwaters added. The downstream half of the bridge dates from the late 18th century and includes roll moulding above the voussoirs. Both sides of the bridge have a plain string course below the parapets, which are made of coursed rubble from the 19th century.
