Description

Skew Bridge, built in 1829, carries the Liverpool-Warrington road over the Liverpool-Manchester railway. It features a single stone arch and is inscribed with the name of engineer George Stephenson. This bridge is a notable example from the early railway age, although it is difficult to see except from the railway itself. The bridge is constructed of red sandstone, but the south side has been rebuilt with a metal parapet.
