A listed early 19th century bridge of ashlar construction. the bridge has a single arch over the river and two smaller arches either side.

Probably built for the Earls of Shrewsbury as a carriage bridge, now it is the footbridge that connects Dimmingsdale to the Churnet Way (Oakamoor to Denstone) ... and the Chained Oak.

Cookie's companions👣🐾🐾💔💔

July 8, 2020

Cookie's keen eye spotted this natural cavity in the rock face and she seemed to claim it.

It was on a slope that was slippy with the showers so it was fun getting up (and back down😉) to photograph what she had found.
