Description
Single-arch masonry stone bridge, built c.1804, over the Grand Canal. Random rubble walls with tooled string course. Dressed voussoirs to semi-elliptical arch profile. West parapet coped with dressed limestone clocks. East parapet wall replaced with tubular steel railing. Humped deck.
Appraisal
Although not fully intact due to the removal of one of the parapet walls, it still remains part of the broader group of canal related structures. This section of the canal was opened in 1804. It was named after the owner of the nearby pub who acted as agent for the Grand Canal Company.
