The bridge, which is presumably for the use of farm animals is over what is clearly a man-made channel conducting water southwards towards a group of reservoirs. Oddly, mapping seems to indicate that rather than delivering water into any of the Whittle Dene Reservoirs, it carries on beyond them. OS flush bracket G2746 can be seen on the bridge wall right of the channel.
