Description

Grize Pool Bridge is a bridge over a drainage ditch, dating from 1781 as indicated by the datestone. It is constructed of dressed stone and features curved parapets with end piers and flat bands. The datestone is located on the south side of the bridge, while the north side has a low segmental arch. To the south side, the ditch is culverted. This bridge is associated with the drainage and enclosure of land in the parish during the late 18th century.

Grize Pool Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,590 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 99% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 99% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 24 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 75% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 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.
