  • Essex Bridge is a Grade I listed packhorse bridge over the River Trent near Great Haywood, Staffordshire, England.
    Spanning the Trent 100 metres downstream of its confluence with the River Sow, it was built in the late sixteenth century by the Earl of Essex a favourite of Queen Elizabeth I. The Earl lived nearby at Chartley Castle. It is now the longest remaining packhorse bridge in England with fourteen of its original forty round span arches left,  and has been described as "perhaps the least altered old bridge in the county"
    The bridge carries the long-distance footpath The Staffordshire Way over the River Trent, linking the Trent and Mersey Canal tow-path with the bridleway through the Shugborough estate to Cannock Chase.
    The bridge is also a scheduled monument.

    Lovely views of a bridge I've used more times than I care to remember. 😁 The Great Haywood end has had to be repaired at least twice in my time, after cars have crashed into it at night. 😆 Not sure if the two adjacent pubs had owt to do with it though! 😂
