Doctor Bridge over the River Esk

Highlight • Bridge

Doctor Bridge over the river Esk is a grade 2 listed building. It's a probable 17th century packhorse bridge which was widened in 1734 for surgeon Edward Tyson. This is probably why it's called Doctor Bridge.
The bridge gives access from the Woolpack Inn to the south of the river, the river path and the fells.

The Woolpack Inn

Highlight • Pub

Decent parking spot to hike Green Crag. Pay at the pub or get there early as I did and just have a polite coffee in the pub on your return. I have attached an OS photo of the route for info.
