What is recorded here

Single-arch limestone bridge over canal, dated 1792, with dressed stone walls, string courses, ashlar voussoirs, ashlar parapets and ashlar copings. Plaques to upstream and downstream elevations.
This single-arch canal bridge forms an interesting group of related structures with the former canal workers' house and lock to the north-east. It also forms part of a boarder group with the surviving structures along the canal. Clearly the work of skilled masons, this bridge is executed with high quality masonry.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
