Description

The Swine Bridge spans the Ogney Brook and features a shallow segmental arch made of stone voussoirs. The bridge has parapet walls constructed from stone rubble, with the parapet wall on the northeast side being shared with the southwest garden wall of Swimbridge Farm.

Local climate

The Swine Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,170 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 90% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 13 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 88% of listed buildings. Of these, 5 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
