The packhorse bridge at Great Asby

Great Asby is an attractive village with old cottages and a hall built in 1670. Asby Beck flows through the middle of the village with a long green up both grassy banks either side. Dale Beck is a tributary of Asby Beck which it meets at the southern end of the village. The packhorse bridge over Dale Beck probably dates from the 17th century when it formed part of the original road into the village.
