Description

The bridge to the south of Hilton Mill is a mill bridge, likely built in the late 18th century. It is constructed from coursed, squared rubble and features a single segmental arch that spans approximately 20 feet. The arch is adorned with dressed voussoirs and a concentric string course. The parapets rise about 3 feet high and have chamfered copings. Beneath the tarmac, there are remnants of the original cobbled surface still visible.
