Taythes Bridge Over Taythes Gill

Taythes Bridge is a small bridge over Taythes Gill, likely built in the 17th century, and is currently in a partly dilapidated state. The bridge is constructed from mixed rubble and features a segmental arch made of rubble voussoirs that spring from a short retaining wall of boulder stones. The north side of the bridge is now missing voussoirs, and both sides lack parapets. There is one surviving monolithic gatepost at the north-east corner, which is now leaning at a 45-degree angle. Historically, this bridge was part of an ancient communications network known as The Street, which is said to have Roman origins and connected Cautley with Grisedale.
