Description

Tavy Bridge is a railway bridge that spans the estuary of the River Tavy, built around 1889-90. It features eight spans of iron bowstring braced girders supported by seven pairs of iron-clad circular piers with pedimental caps. The bridge crosses the deep-water channel, and at either end, it is connected to a stone viaduct with segmental arches—seven arches at the south-east end and two at the north-west end. The Plymouth Devonport South-Western Junction Railway Company, established in 1883, opened this line from Lydford to Devonport in 1890. The line was initially operated by the LSWR, which had a small stake in the company, before fully taking over in 1922.
