Description
A narrow pedestrian bridge of humped back profile carrying a pathway over a sunken driveway, linking the gardens of Rosemount House (Grey Abbey House) with the pasture-land to the north. North-west face: walling of rubble stonework with a segmental arch of red brickwork; rubble stone parapet with fieldstone copings. To the left-hand side of the arch is a rectangular block of dressed stone with two small square socket holes. The parapet continues to each side in raking approach paths. South-east face: similar to north face but contains a dressed stone block with square socket holes to each spandrel of archway. Underside of bridge is a roughly whitened brick vault springing from rubble stone piers. Path on top of bridge is roughly cement screeded, and partly grassed to each end. On the north approach path is a gateway comprising a pair of plain modern timber posts with an old flat-iron and railinged gate of no special interest. SETTING: The bridge stands in the grounds of Rosemount House straddling the sunken driveway, with one approach path located in the open grassy pasture-land, and the other located in the garden where it is surrounded by trees, bushes and shrubs.
