Horkstow Bridge



Horkstow Bridge - a suspension bridge that spans the New River Ancholme. Designed by Sir John Rennie in 1836 as part of the River Ancholme Drainage Scheme.  Built to cross the New River Ancholme to give access to the brick kilns that ran along the bank. It is one of the earliest surviving suspension bridges in the country and is now a Grade II* listed building.
