Description
The railings and retaining wall adjoining Tern Bridge to the east are likely from the late 18th century. The structure features a red brick retaining wall topped with grey sandstone coping, supporting wrought iron railings that are approximately 25 meters long. The railings have a square-section with spear-head tops and moulded bases, along with square section standards that also feature large spear-heads and curved stanchions at the rear. The railings curve over the parapet of the Tern Bridge abutments. At the time of the survey in January 1985, the railings were reported to be damaged.
