Buryas Bridge

Buryas Bridge is a hamlet on the A30 between Land's End and Penzance in west Cornwall, England, UK.[1]

History

The hamlet and bridge are on the modern A30 road, which was originally the route between Penzance and the early medieval monastic centre at St Buryan. The route is marked by several surviving medieval wayside crosses including one at Trembath, 200 m to the east.Шаблон:Sfnp The bridge became a ″County Bridge″, maintained by the County in 1774 when Justices were told that the ancient and common bridge on the boundary between the parishes of Madron and Paul was in decay. A plan and the rebuild of the bridge was produced by John Dennis at the expense of the County.[2]

Geography

About 1 km upstream of Buryas Bridge is the Drift Reservoir, which was built between 1959 and 1961, and provides water to west Cornwall.[3] Below the hamlet, the river flows south-east towards Newlyn and Mount's Bay.
