1 gen 1508 anni - Staddle Bridge

Descrizione:

This bridge crosses the river Wiske and it is first referred to in a lease to the Prior of Mount Grace which gives the boundaries of property in East Harlsey. 1508 <i>incipiendo apud Stathelbrige descend per cursum aque usque pasturam vocatam lez pyttes in campo de Estharlesay</i> (YAJ7/486). Smith made the point that the river was quite narrow here, with flat land on either side, so this may originally have been a timber bridge standing on four posts.
