Abstract:
A watching brief was undertaken on behalf of the Highways, Contracts and Programme Unit of Worcestershire County Council at Teme Bridge, Tenbury, Worcestershire (NGR SO 5955 6859; HER ref WSM 46030). Keystones in two locations across the bridge were replaced due to erosion and flood damage. Concrete was strengthened and the bridge surfacing was replaced. Two access holes to voids under the Southern arches were also made to allow inspections at a later date. The fabric of the bridge exposed showed a difference between the north and south sections. Within span 2 on the north side an earlier undulating cobbled surface was exposed. Underlying this the bridge consisted of large roughly hewn sandstone ashlar masonry blocks with squared sides within a sandy matrix. On the southern side of the bridge at span 6 the large roughly hewn sandstone blocks were packed with sand and some river gravels and was overlain by a smooth sandstone slab surface and red sand as this section was rebuilt in the 1770s due to flood damage.
