Dating to 1766, it stands on the northern banks of the River Wyre, about 600 feet (180 m) east of Shard Bridge, after which it is named. The bridge used to be immediately to the west of the building, but a new structure (the third overall) was built in 1993, a few yards downstream, and its predecessor demolished.
