Description


BROOMHAUGH AND RIDING BROOMHAUGH/RIDING MILL NZ 0161 22/69 Footbridge across Riding Mill Burn 40 metres north of St. James' Church

GV II

Packhorse Bridge, probably C17 but incorporating earlier fabric. Roughly squared stone with tooled stone parapet. Single segmental arch, chamfered parapet of large blocks clamped together. The more widely splayed south abutment has a drain with a stone spout on the west. Known locally as the 'Roman Bridge', and sited on the line of Dere Street. The arch and north abutment may be C17 (1603 : OS record card) with parapet rebuilt in C18 or C19, but the south abutment incorporates at least 2 phases of medieval or earlier masonry.
