SE 26 NE SAWLEY FOUNTAINS ROAD SE 2660 6813 (west side, off)
5/130 Bridge approximately 200 metres north of Rough House 6.3.67 GV II
Bridge over River Skell. Mid to late C18, probably for John or William Aislabie of Studley Royal. Ashlar. 3 round arches with keystones and voussoirs; triangular cutwaters, those on downstream side carried up as shallow buttresses with pyramidal capstones on moulded parapet coping. Projecting band at pathway level, terminals to flanking walls. The bridge is a miniature version of the much larger structures of c1780 at Bridge Hewick (qv) and Boroughbridge (qv, repairs by John Carr), and the capstone to the Aldfield Well (qv) is similar in style. The pathway was probably a route from Studley Royal to Rough House and together with Rough House (qv) and Aldfield Well (qv) the bridge forms part of the western extreme of the Studley Royal estate landscaping. Straddles the boundary with Aldfield parish.
