Heritage listing
Details Canal bridge, aligned east-west to carry Sneath Lane, Clarborough over the Chesterfield canal. The canal opened fully in 1777 and was engineered by the notable canal engineer James Brindley. MATERIALS: constructed of red brick with stone dressings and copings. EXTERIOR: the bridge is of single elliptical arch form, spanning the canal and the canal towpath. There are sloping approaches at both ends of the bridge, with substantial raking abutments. The bridge arch springs from a deep ashlar band set on a low brick plinth. On either side of the bridge arch are shallow pilasters which extend upwards into the bridge parapets, terminating as rectangular piers with shallow-pitched ashlar caps. The central section of the bridge has brick parapet walls with a deep ashlar coping. At the head of the bridge arch is a band course which extends into the downward sloping abutment wall parapets, ending at low terminal piers with ashlar caps.
