Description

Bishopton Bridge is a late 18th century or early 19th century structure, likely built shortly after the turnpiking of the Patchley Bridge Road in 1756. The bridge was widened in 1885 and is constructed of ashlar stone. It features a single segmental span and has a band along its length. The bridge is topped with a coped parapet that includes piers at both ends. It is noted that a medieval predecessor of this bridge is said to have had a bridge chapel.
