Summary

[edit]
Description

New Bridges (dated 1822), St Ives, Cambridgeshire (<a href="http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-53992-new-bridges-saint-ives-cambridgeshire" rel="nofollow">Grade II*</a>). From the listing: "This 55 arched, single structure is a unique causeway in the UK in that it is the longest road causeway with the greatest number of continuous brick arches. It predates the brick viaducts of the railway era and is a very significant example of 'Turnpike archaeology', and was considered to be important by the engineer Thomas Telford who visited in 1826. A comparison with other causeways shows that the New Bridges is much more extensive in a single stretch and much less altered than other comparable examples."

A walk of 11.7 miles that I did with two others on 24 May 2015 in Cambridgeshire, in and around Godmanchester, Hemingford Abbots, Hemingford Grey, St Ives, and Houghton.
