Description

This bridge used to cross the River Mimram but the river now takes a different route, though I can't quite make out where from the maps - it seems to be the same place. I didn't venture down any further than the bridge. 24 August 2010.

The bridge is marked specifically on the OS map, in that "Non-Roman" font, which is why I specifically went to find it.

I found some info on the bridge. It's Grade II Listed and its listing text says "Bridge over River Mimram. Circa 1764 by Sir William Chambers for Thomas Brand. Portland stone, red brick core. Single-span round arched bridge carrying East Drive over river. Roadway humped but bridge parapets ramped up to horizontal main section. Continuous deep moulded archivolt, V-jointed rustication, giant projecting keystone. Ovolo bedmould to parapet. Turned balusters and dies on moulded base with moulded rail. Balustrade largely collapsed. Scheduled Ancient Monument: Herts No. 73."

I have now run out of photos to upload so I shall have to go out and take some more!!!
