Description

Brancey Bridge is a bridge that crosses the River Nene, with a datestone indicating it was built in 1760. It was restored in the early 20th century. The bridge is constructed from squared coursed limestone and features ashlar dressings. It has three semi-circular arches and low cutwaters on the west side. The parapet has been rebuilt, and there is a datestone located at the center of the east side.

Local climate

Brancey Bridge sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 94% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 90% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.
