    Hiking

    Constructed mainly of granite rubble and brick, the bridge features six clearly visible arches and a seventh arch that is partially hidden by the bank, with a low parapet and 3 rounded cutwaters on the east side.

    Formerly a crucial crossing for packhorses, it is now primarily a pedestrian feature adjacent to a ford, often used by walkers on the Leicestershire Round.
