Description
Railway accommodation underbridge, 1845-1847 by Thomas Grainger for the Leeds, Dewsbury & Manchester Railway.
MATERIALS: Pennine Lower Coal Measures Sandstone.
DESCRIPTION: single carriageway arch flanked by deeply curving, raked wing walls retaining the embankments. The arch is semi-circular, formed with rusticated, V-jointed voussoirs that spring from impost bands. The rest of the walling is of coursed, squared, quarry-faced masonry. The bridge is topped by an ashlar string course and a ramped blocking course without parapets. The wing walls are ramped, terminating with simple pilaster-strips, and are capped with plain, squared ashlar copings. The trackside fencing and the metal gate for the archway are modern.
