Pateley Bridge (bridge)

There was a ford at the site in the early mediaeval period, but by 12th century there was a wooden bridge.

John Leland described a wooden bridge here in the 16th century.

[1][2] The current structure dates from the late 18th century, and was grade II listed in 1967.

[3] The bridge is built of stone and consists of three segmental arches, two over the river.

The bridge has pointed cutwaters that rise as pilaster buttresses with flat coping, recessed voussoirs, and a raised band at road level.
