Ivy Bridge over the River Mint


Ivy Bridge is a stone rubble bridge over the River Mint, downstream of Patton Bridge (village) in Cumbria. It dates from the late 18th or early 19th century. The bridge has a main segmental arch, with 2 smaller arches for floodwater to north. It was built using dry stone walling techniques, without cement. The bridge straddles the civil parishes of Grayrigg and Whinfel. The bridge is Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England. Part of the north side of the bridge collapsed due to flooding c.2017.
