Leadmill Bridge crosses the River Derwent on the B6001 at Leadmill. This road runs from Bakewell to Hathersage.
The bridge has a slight humpback appearance to it, and combined with a sharp bend on the south bank, has caught out unwary drivers on several occasions. The lack of a section of dry stone wall on the bend shows this - the farmer has obviously given up on rebuilding it and put a fence up instead!
