Description


SJ 68 NE LYMM C.P. THE AVENUE

2/27 Bridge over brook and
dell at head of Lymm
Dam

II

Bridge 1918-19, built by Fairclough Brothers for W.H.Lever and
C.G.Dewhurst, of reinforced concrete. 3 arched ribs carry the road
deck on vertical struts of square section. Quadrant abutments have
banded rustication. Parapets have moulded plinths and parapets, each
with 6 open panels over the span and 2 over each abutment containing
moulded balusters which show, where damaged, a central rod of iron or
steel.
An early example of an open arched-rib reinforced concrete structure,
the bridge marks a largely unexecuted scheme by the proprietors for
residential development of land overlooking Lymm Dam.
