Description

Crooklands Bridge is a canal bridge built around 1818 by engineer John Fletcher, based on original designs by John Rennie, whose route for the canal was authorized in 1792. The bridge is constructed from square, coursed limestone and features a limestone string course, copings, and a rounded fender course. It has a single elliptical arch made of rusticated voussoirs and a keystone. The parapets are shallow arched and slightly curved to the northwest, with pilasters at each end. The bridge is built into an embankment at both ends.
