Ribble (that part in Preston B.C.)
GV II
Bridge over River Ribble (now a footbridge). 1759. Sandstone.
Five unequal segmental arches, rising towards the centre;
V-shaped cutwaters continued to the parapets to form refuges
on both sides of the deck; spandrels of red sandstone;
parapets with moulded tops, splayed at north end, and that on
the east side linked to matching wall which turns at
right-angles along north side of approach ramp from west.
History: replaced first bridge on this site (built 1755,
collapsed 1756), and until early C20 was lowest bridge over
River Ribble, intermittently maintained by tolls. The southern
half of the bridge is in Penwortham CP, South Ribble District
(q.v.).
