Heritage listing
Details IPSTONES C.P. CALDON CANAL SK 04 NW SK 014 481 10/209 - Cherryeye bridge at SK 014 481 - II Canal road bridge, now redundant. Circa 1779. Coursed dressed and squared stone. Labelled, roughly 3-centred arch, flat-top parapet humped over span and slightly curved out at ends. The Cherryeye bridge received its name on account of its use as an access route to a nearby ironstone mine (now disused) by the miners who on their return home had a distinctly cherryeye appearance from the ironstone dust. The Caldon Canal was built to carry limestone from Caldon Low and was completed to Froghall by 1779. First surveyed by James Brindley, succeeded by Henshaw and completed by John Rennie circa 1801.
