This bridge used to carry the North Staffordshire Railway Ashbourne Branch over the mill race at Sides Mill. Sides Mill was a corn mill which went out of use in the late 19th century and is now Sidesmill Farm. The Ashbourne Branch of the N.S.R. opened in 1852 and closed in 1963 with the track being lifted in 1964.
