Slater's Bridge, Packhorse bridge in Little Langdale, England.
The stone bridge spans the River Brathay with a 15-foot segmental arch, incorporating a natural boulder in the middle of the stream.
Built in the 17th century, this Grade II* listed structure facilitated the transportation of slate from the mines of Coniston and Tilberthwaite.
The bridge represents a connection between the mining communities of Little Langdale and stands as a testament to industrial development.
Visitors can reach the bridge through marked walking paths from the Three Shires Inn, following the coordinates 54.4178 latitude and -3.06159 longitude.
The bridge design utilizes a large natural boulder as a central support, creating an innovative engineering solution for crossing the river.
