Clam Bridge at Wycoller is said by some to be more than 1000 years old, whilst others suggest it is more likely to date from the 16th century. The bridge, made from a single gritstone slab, is listed Grade II*. It was repaired in 1991, after being cracked in two by flooding in 1989-90.

Intermittent earthen limekiln remains below Copy House at Wycoller. Limestone would have been collected from the nearby river or washed out of the boulder clay in the nearby hills by 'hushing' - releasing stored water from ponds and watercourses made above the valley slopes. There is no native limestone nearby but the clay can contain as much as 25% limestone brought by glacial ice from Craven district of Yorkshire.
