Description

Michaelstone Bridge is a likely early to mid 19th century twin-arched bridge designed for a single carriageway, built in the style of 17th century vernacular architecture. It is constructed from coursed rubblestone and features two voussoired arches, along with a central refuge for pedestrians. The bridge has rough hewn coping stones and a stringcourse located beneath the parapet.

Local climate

Michaelstone Bridge sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,000 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 77% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
