Description

The road bridge over the stream in Seavington St Mary was built in 1794. It is constructed from near-ashlar ham stone and features a single semi-circular arch. The bridge has low parapets that are one stone high and are held together with iron dog-clamps. The parapets are angled at the south-west corner to accommodate the road junction. This bridge was built by the Ilminster Trust when it was part of the old road, which has since been replaced by the A303.

Road Bridge receives an average of 800 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 54% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 66% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 29 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 67% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 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.
