Description
The bridge was erected in 1778, replacing an earlier ford, and still survives largely complete below the 1936 road bridge. It was built of sandstone ashlar, approximately 0.75m x 0.19m x 0.25m, probably obtained locally, if not from one of the quarries actually on Blaydon Burn. The stones are dressed with a rusticated face and drafted margin and features a single arch, and parapets with chamfered copings and settings for iron railings.....
