Description

Ewegales Bridge is a public road bridge that spans the River Dee. It was likely built in the late 17th century or early 18th century, as it shares similar construction features with Cowgill Bridge, which is dated 1702. The bridge is made of coursed sandstone rubble and has rounded coping stones. It features a low segmental arch constructed with rubble voussoirs and archbands, along with squinches. The parapets at both the north and south ends are splayed outwards.

Local climate

Ewegales Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,310 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 95% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 92% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 64 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 99% of listed buildings. Of these, 41 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
