Description

Kettleholm Bridge is an early 19th-century road bridge featuring a single wide segmental arch that spans the Milk Water. The roadway slopes down towards the northern bank. The bridge is constructed entirely of red ashlar stone, primarily with a droved finish. It has a band course located below the coped parapets, which curve outwards at the approaches and are complemented by circular terminal piers.
