What is recorded here
Single-arch humpbacked road bridge over Clashawley River, built c. 1830, with cast-iron railings to cut limestone parapets between limestone piers with curved caps. Snecked limestone walls with ashlar limestone voussoirs to segmental arch. Carved limestone piers having decorative motifs with rounded capstones.
Attributed to the local architect, William Tinsley, this humpback bridge is an ornate feature of the Grove House demesne. The cast-iron railings present an interesting and aesthetic contrast to the finely-cut ashlar voussoirs which articulate the sweeping span and form of the bridge. It is a fine example of technical skill and aesthetic design.
