Description

The Shropshire Union Canal Bridge Number 58, also known as Holling's Bridge, is a canal bridge built around 1830, designed by engineers Thomas Telford and Alexander Easton. It is constructed from rough-faced sandstone with ashlar dressings, and features a narrow elliptical arch with voussoirs and imposts, along with a flat string course. The parapet was rebuilt in red brick in the late 20th century. The bridge has revetment walls on the north and south sides, which include circular cast iron tie plates. This section of the canal was originally part of the Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal, which was authorized by an act passed in 1826 and opened in 1835. It was later absorbed by the Ellesmere and Chester Canal in 1845 and became part of the Shropshire Union in 1846.
