This is the downstream, southeasterly side of the Grade II listed structure of Oldforge Bridge, which dates from the 19th century. It was presumably preceded by a ford across the Wesley Brook. The whole structure is more fully described at http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-417336-oldforge-bridge-ryton-#.WE5UFrKLSM8
