Baddington Lane Bridge Number 88

Baddington Lane Bridge Number 88 is a public road bridge that crosses the main line of the Shropshire Union Canal, built around 1826, with consulting by T. Telford. The bridge features blue brick and stonework, with a wide elliptical skew-arch that has stone springing. The outer face of the arch is one brick deep, and there is a projecting stone band at carriageway level. It includes cast-iron rubbing posts at the angles of the arch and blue brick paving for the tow-path, which has a raised course for hoof grip. The bridge has curved approach walls, rounded stone parapet copings, and four-way rounded caps on the end piers.
