Details

STOKE PRIOR CP AND STOKE PRIOR (DET) CP SO 55 SW SO 53965492 5/95 Bridge about 30 yards south-west of Risbury Bridge II

Former road bridge across Hampton Brook. Probably medieval. Sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings. Two round arches with ashlar voussoirs just visible above ground level. The bridge is about 6 1/2 feet wide and 8 yards long and rises only about 2 feet above ground level. It represents the earlier course of the road before the present Risbury Bridge was built in the C19. Its general appearance and narrowness would seem to indicate a medieval date. (RCHM, Herefs III, p 188, item 3).
