Full Description
Brantham Bridge over Stutton Brook. Shown on Bowen's and (less clearly) on Hodskinson's maps (S1)(S2). Construction date unknown. Described in 1880 as `Two semi-circular brick arches, each 4 feet 4 inches chord with semi- circular inverts. Brick parapet, and line of post and rail guard fence at each end. Roadway 12 feet 6 inches' (S3).
Rebuilt(?) in 1950s & August 1995. Over very small stream - earlier bridge must have been insubstantial and probably totally destroyed by new bridge in 1950s.
