Description

Airton Bridge is a road bridge, likely built in the early 19th century. It is constructed from dressed stone. The carriageway slopes upward towards the Airton side, where there is a solid abutment. On the Calton side, a pier with cutwaters and pilaster strips supports a low segmental arch, along with a smaller round arch that is also supported by another pilastered abutment. The bridge features solid parapets.

Airton Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,200 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 87% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 51 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 92% of listed buildings. Of these, 29 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.
