Description
Garth's Bridge over the Kendal/Lancaster Canal is an accommodation bridge built around 1816. It was likely designed by engineer John Fletcher, based on the original designs of John Rennie, whose route for the canal was authorized in 1792. The bridge is constructed of squared, coursed limestone and features a limestone string course, copings, and a rounded fender course. It has an elliptical arch adorned with rusticated voussoirs and a keystone. The bridge includes ramped parapets with a flat top and pilasters at each end, with an approximate width of 3.5 meters between the parapets.
