Description

Whitehouse Bridge is a stone bridge, likely built in the late 18th century. It features squared coursed stonework and has voussoirs forming an elliptical arch that spans a canal and tow-path. Above the arch, there is a string course, and the bridge has parapets with stone coping. At each end, there are square piers. The bridge also displays an iron plate with the number "26".
