(With my apologies for the poor quality of the photograph - I blame low light and pouring rain). The bridge was designed by Thomas Telford and built in 1819, as part of the New Road bypass of the old town centre and Spittal's Bridge. (See Image). The bridge features an unusual circular arch, and is a Category B Listed Structure.
