Roman Bridge, Goyt Valley
Two photo’s of Roman Bridge just south of Marple. It’s a listed structure which allegedly dates from the 1700′s (if you believe everything you read on the internet!). I’m not at all convinced though – there’s nowhere near 300 years of spalling to the exposed stonework for a start, but I digress. It’s well worth a visit to see, but beware of the “roads” leading up to it from Marple Bridge or Mellor – they’re not adopted by the council and hence seriously knackered… my advice, take a 4×4 or walk!
