Description

Seat and information board next to Glen Howe Pack Horse Bridge, in Glen Howe Park, Wharncliffe Side near Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England.

The bridge was originally built in 1734 by Benjamin Milnes, as New Mills Bridge over Ewden Beck, in the Ewden Valley, South Yorkshire. In 1925–1926, when the valley was due to be flooded to create the Broomhead Reservoirs, the bridge was dismantled, and brought to Glen Howe Park to be rebuilt there, with completion in 1929. The rebuild was funded by paper mill manager Joseph Dixon (died 1926). It was rebuilt by six men: Nott Whittam, Doggie Ridgewell, Ted Hirst, Greno Fleetwood, Sammy Clarkson and Jack Brooke. (Source: information board in Glen Howe Park, and Historic England listing). The bridge is now a Grade II listed building, no. 1281510.
