Description

WINGERWORTH SK36NE HILLHOUSES LANE 1264-0/6/144 (North side) Road Bridge and associated enclosure walls comprising the sheepwash at SK369671

II

Road bridge and associated sheepwash. Early C19. Ashlar and coursed rubble Coal Measures Sandstone. Flat road bridge with massive flagged base, supported on substantial central masonry pier, pointed at ends to form cutwaters. The north-western end of this pier, and the lining walls to the stream channel, are grooved to accept stop planks, to create the pond for the sheepwash. The north-west parapet of the bridge is linked with the twin curved walls which extend from either end of the bridge on its north-western side, and which form small walled enclosures, with half-round copings, on each side of Tricket Brook. At the north-eastern end of the bridge, a stone setted way leads from the lane, onto a setted ramp leading out of the sheepwash. Each enclosure wall has a narrow gateway onto the lane.
