Description

Little Emily's Bridge is a Grade II listed structure located over Captain Beck. It was likely built in the late 17th century to early 18th century. The bridge is constructed of rubble and features a single, slightly hump-backed arch. It serves as a narrow footbridge paved with stone slabs, with the arch supported by rubble voussoirs and large blocks forming the ridged parapet. At the north end, the bridge is closed off by two closely-set stones that create a stile. This bridge historically carried the footpath from the bridge at Grassington, also known as Linton Bridge, to Linton Mill and the church.
