Description
Brady Farm Bridge is a railway basket-arch overbridge built for the Leeds & Selby Railway between 1832 and 1833, designed by Walker & Burges and constructed by Hamer & Pratt. It is made of sandstone ashlar with squared and coursed quarry-faced limestone.
The bridge features a single-span design that accommodates four tracks. It is part of a series of bridges on the Leeds & Selby Railway that share a similar design. The wide arch rises from an impost band and is constructed with stepped, rusticated, and v-jointed ashlar voussoirs. The bridge has straight wing walls, and the parapet rests on a square-moulded ashlar string course. The low parapet walls are notable for their pronounced horizontal tooling and end in oval piers, which are characteristic of this railway line.
It is important to note that the 20th-century metal railings attached to the stonework of the original parapets are not considered to have special architectural or historic interest.
