Description
Marsh Lane Bridge Number 91 is a public road bridge that crosses the main line of the Shropshire Union Canal, built around 1826, with consultant T. Telford involved in its design. The bridge features blue bricks and stonework, with a wide elliptical skew arch resting on a stone base and one-metre-high brick abutments. It includes cast-iron rubbing posts at the angles of the arch and a paved tow-path underneath. The outer face of the arch is one brick deep, and there is a projecting stone carriageway band. The approach walls have a splayed design made of blue bricks, leading to an almost level parapet with a rounded top and four-way rounded end-pier caps.
