BLACKAWTON FORDER
SX84NW Bridge over the Gara

Road bridge over stream (The Gara). Probably C18. Local slate ruble with
dressed slate arch ring. Small hump-back single span bridge with a
segmental, almost round, arch springing from vertical abutments. Original
low parapets with pitched slate coping and vertical slate lacing. The
parapets are splayed out over the abutments and at the north end of the east

Mill, which is now in ruins. The gate-pier is built of dressed slate
rubble, square on plan and rebated for a gate.
