G.V. II


Road bridge. c.1790. William Strutt (Junior) engineer for
Samuel Oldknow. Ashlar and dressed stone. One large semi-
circular span flanked by square projections and retaining
walls which curve out in plan to be terminated in square
piers. The ashlar parapet walls have a rounded top. An
arched opening to the left gave access from Mellor Lodge via
an underground tunnel to Oldknow's stables. An important
and impresive example of late C18 engineering.
