2/10 Bridge on drive west of
house site.

GV II

The roadbridge crosses the Cadnam River, above the northern arm of a
U-shaped lake. 1828. The structure has three equal spans of cast iron
beams with cambered soffits, the outer faces having a series of enlarging
holes within triangular panels. Above each span there is a cast-iron
open-work parapet, with diaper rails, separated into three units by
vertical panels of open circles. The supports to the bridge have a stucco
finish to brickwork, with a band at road level, and stone caps with reeded
and rounded bands below channelled bands. Beyond the bridge the solid
supports extend as flanking walls, curving outwards to end in massive
circular piers. A small central panel has raised letters WSS above the
date 1828.
