Description
Albert Edward Bridge is a railway bridge built in 1863 by engineer John Fowler. It features a cast-iron structure with brown brick abutments that have chamfered yellow brick angle quoins. The bridge has a single segmental girder arch topped with a mid-20th century steel parapet. Plates at the apex of the arch display the date and name of the bridge, along with the names of its engineer and the contractors, Messrs Brassby and Field. Another plate indicates that the bridge was cast and erected by the Coalbrookdale Company of Ironbridge.
