Colne Bridge between Bradley and Kirkheaton
Colne Bridge between Bradley and Kirkheaton
This bridge was mentioned in Fountains Abbey records of the 12C. It became a county bridge, indicating the former importance of the route along the ridge from Grange Moor, and has no doubt been rebuilt a few times over the centuries. In the background is a modern industrial unit and an old mill building, now housing a variety of small enterprises but partly derelict.
