What is recorded here
Single-arch road bridge over canal, c.1780. Coursed ashlar piers and dressed voussoirs to semi-circular arch. Rubble parapets with coping terminating in curves to canal banks. Deep rope grooves cut into north pier adjacent to walkway/towpath.
This noticeably elevated bridge is a fine example of the canal bridges to be found on the Grand Canal. It is all the more stunning due to its remote location and idyllic setting amongst the lush natural environment.
