Ivelet Bridge is a Grade II-listed structure that dates back to the late 16th century. Like many beauty spots around Swaledale and Wensleydale, it featured in the BBC's adaptation of James Herriot's novels, All Creatures Great and Small. In fact, the low-level version of the Herriot Way, a circular long-distance trail that follows the route author James Alfie Wight took with his son Jimmy, passes the bridge.

Hiking

There is a bench where you can rest right before the bridge along the road. Also there is an small entry to get under the bridge where you can admire the reflection of the bridge in the water. It is lovely.
