CORNBURY AND WYCHWOOD CORNBURY PARK SP3518 13/20 Bridge and adjoining gatepiers approx. 35m NE of North Lodge (that part in Cornbury and Wychwood C.P.)

GV II

Bridge and attached gatepiers. 1689, probably by William Talman. Ironstone ashlar. Five round arches; larger central arch with raised keystone and flanking pilasters and smaller arches to left and right with flush keystones. Parapet with string course and coping. Pair of probably mid-C19 square limestone ashlar gatepiers adjoining to the south-west forming the entrance to the entrance courtyard in front of the North Lodge (q.v.); each with chamfered plinth, moulded cornice and globe finial. The bridge is probably part of the work carried out at Cornbury for the Earl of Clarendon by Talman in 1689. The bridge carries the north-east drive from Charlbury to Cornbury House (q.v.) across the River Evenlode. (Buildings of England: Oxfordshire: p555)
