New Bridge (River Barle)

Highlight • Bridge

Once an part of the Pixton Park drive, New Bridge is far from new. Built in the early 1800s, this gorgeous bridge is made from local slate stone and spans the River Barle. Today, it sits under vibrant trees and is partially covered in ivy. Its position and age gives it a bit of a mystical air and it's a genuine joy to come across on walks in the area.
