Description
The Brusselton Accommodation Bridge is a railway bridge built between 1832 and 1833, designed by Thomas Storey and constructed by John Carter for the Stockton & Darlington Railway. It is made of ashlar sandstone and features a single span that carries the former railway line over a trackway.
The exterior of the bridge includes a round arch made of voussoirs that are shaped to align with the coursing of the ashlar stonework on the spandrel walls. The bridge parapet extends between square end piers, which also support the sloping wing walls that retain the sides of the embankment. Both the piers and parapets have a simple string course at the base, and the wing walls are topped with stone coping. There is a flight of stone steps adjacent to the north east wing wall that leads up the side of the embankment.
Additionally, the bridge is part of the Scheduled Monument known as 'Stockton & Darlington Railway: Brusselton Inclines'.
