Paine's Bridge - Chatsworth

The building of this three arch bridge, was started in 1759 and completed by 1761, carries the main drive over the River Derwent up to the house. The bridge was carefully angled so as to be seen from the house and orientated in such a way as to provide that last, striking view to the house from the entrance drive.
