Wycoller Hall & Clapper Bridge.


One of the ancient bridges in Wycoller, North-West England. A clapper bridge is an ancient form of bridge found on the moors of Devon and in other upland areas of the United Kingdom. It is formed by large flat slabs of granite or schist supported on stone piers (across rivers), or resting on the banks of streams.
This Clapper Bridge (variously known as Hall Bridge, Weaver’s Bridge and Druid’s Bridge) had two stone slabs supported by a central stone pier, with their ends on the banks of the stream. It was built probably in the late 18th century though some say it is of medieval origin. The eastern slab broke and the bridge was repaired by supporting the cracked slab on another stone pier closer to the east bank. The surface of this bridge's slabs had grooves worn by iron horseshoes but these were chiselled out around 1910 when a farmer's daughter tripped on the grooves and fell to her death in the stream below.
Wycoller is a small hamlet in the civil parish of Trawden Forest in Pendle, Lancashire, England. It is located near to the junction of the Lancashire, West Yorkshire and North Yorkshire borders. The village dates back to before the 10th century BCE and is now a Country Park. The visitor's book in the Aisled Barn Information Centre, which also houses a Craft museum, contains signatures from all over the world and as far away as Australia.
