Extending to nearly a mile in length and supported by 29 arches, it is believed to be the longest stone bridge of its kind in England, offering a striking reminder of the area's long and fascinating history.
Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts are well catered for, with both the River Trent and the Trent and Mersey Canal close by. The nearby sailing club, renowned for its excellent facilities— including superb accessibility for disabled members—can be reached within just a few minutes by car.
