A pair of historic bridges near Grinton Moor have finally been rebuilt after flooding washed them away in 2019.
The rebuild project was earmarked for competition in November 2020 but Covid-19 restrictions, flooding and four weeks of snow have repeatedly pushed back the timeline.
Work on the 16

Howard Civil Engineering was awarded the contract to rebuild both bridges in August 2020. Scope of work included:
One bridge to be constructed using a box culvert and faced with stone work salvaged from the original collapsed bridge.
