Leckwith Bridge

The old Leckwith Bridge dates from at least the early 16th century, referred to in 1536 as being "soundly built of stone".^[1] It was probably partially rebuilt in the 17th century and the central arch being rebuilt during the 18th century.^[1] The bridge has three arches built of rubblestone. The roadway is approximately 2.75m (9 feet) in width, with the addition of pedestrian refuges above pointed cutwaters between each arch.^[1]

The bridge was listed as Grade II* in 1952, being an example of "a fine and rare medieval bridge".^[1] It is also designated as a scheduled monument^[2] The bridge remains in use today for goods vehicles accessing the adjacent builders' yards.^[3]
