Welcome to Spotland Bridge

Spotland Bridge is a historic bridge located in Lancashire, England. It was built in the early 19th century and is a Grade II listed structure. The bridge spans the River Spodden and connects the towns of Rochdale and Spotland. It was originally built to provide a crossing for the growing number of workers who were employed in the mills and factories in the area.

The bridge is made of stone and has a single arch that spans 60 feet. It is a beautiful example of Georgian architecture and is a popular spot for tourists and locals alike. The bridge has undergone several renovations over the years, including the addition of a footpath in the 20th century. Today, it is still in use and is an important part of the local transportation network.

Spotland Bridge is not just a historic structure, but it is also a symbol of the industrial heritage of Lancashire. It is a reminder of the important role that the textile industry played in the development of the region. The bridge has been featured in several works of literature and art, and it continues to inspire artists and writers today. It is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the people who built it, and it remains an important part of the cultural landscape of Lancashire.
