Description

Built of rubble stonework. Two segmental arches constructed with radial stones recessed under a regulating course, flush spandrels and parapet, all carried on a substantial water pier with a high rounded cutwater on the upstream side, and a low cutwater downstream. At the N end a further smaller segmental flood arch similarly constructed and probably to the same radius, and a further square culvert, probably for a former mill stream. A similar filled arch probably exists at the S end. The upstream cutwater has been modified to carry the concrete pedestrian walkway, with steel railings. The main arches span c10m with the crown rising 3.75m above the river. The original bridge was a total 2.8m wide, and widened in 1780 by 1.8m. The flush coped parapets 40cm thick once had inscriptions 1745, WWA 1859, D.DLL/A 12/1859 no longer visible. The present carriageway is 4m wide.
