A beautiful spot in the Shropshire countryside, we have planted this cache here with a hope that you will take some time to enjoy the surroundings, the view from the nearby bridge is quite a delight and if you are not familiar with the area, this spot is easily missed. The grade II listed bridge is worth some time discovering.
This is a micro cache - please bring tweezers!
Walcot Bridge
Designed by William Hayward circa 1740-82. Road bridge over the River Tern. Ashlar with 3 rusticated round-arches with keyblocks. Cutwaters have semi-circular section 'pilasters' above in the spandrels. String course and low parapet with panel at centre inscribed with date MDCCLXXXII and inscription "the last Edifice erected by that ingenious Architect William Hayward". The abutments splay outwards and are terminated with square piers. William Hayward also designed the bridge over the River Tern at Atcham, Shropshire and the bridge over the Thames at Henley, Oxfordshire in 1781.
