Description

Little Ouseburn Bridge is a bridge built in the mid-18th century, possibly designed by John Carr. It is constructed of orange-red brick in stretcher bond, featuring dressed sandstone piers and dressings. The bridge has three semicircular spans, with the center span being higher, and is supported by raked abutments that contain flood arches, which are now blocked. The arches are made of fasciated sandstone and are positioned between square-section piers. A sandstone parapet band runs along the top, topped by a plain parapet with cambered coping. The caps of the piers are either pyramidal or flat.

Local climate

Little Ouseburn Bridge receives an average of 750 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 70% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 89% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 41 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 78% of listed buildings. Of these, 20 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.
