Ford at Littlebeck
This is the third of the six fords on Little Beck at Littlebeck. This one is an irish bridge ford and forms the entrance to Alun House.
Irish bridge :: SK8039

An irish bridge is a multi-culverted ford. At normal water levels the water-course passes through the culverts and under the road but at times of high water levels the watercourse passes over the road creating a true ford.
In common with french windows and english muffins irish bridge is not usually capitalised and that is the format I have used throughout.
