Description

This bridge and dam, located approximately 60 meters east of Ford Cottage, is likely from the early 19th century. It is constructed from squared coursed limestone and features a single round arch with a keystone. The plain parapets end with hexagonal piers. Below the bridge, there is a sloping dam overflow. The bridge originally served as the drive to Knuston Hall, which is not included in this listing.
