Single arch with radiating voussoirs to band at road level and projecting parapet coping; the parapets terminate in domed bollards. Hubberholme bridge was until the C19 an important crossing of the Wharfe for the main routeway between Lancaster and Newcastle on Tyne. It was repaired in 1639 and rebuilt in 1734 and its present size reflects the traffic using it in the C19. Included for group value. A.
