Description
Bridge number 1 on the Coventry Canal is a road bridge built in 1769, with repairs made in the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick with blue brick dressings and features a single segmental arch supported by inclined side walls. On each side, there is an oval cast iron plaque inscribed with the number '1'. The side walls curve outward and extend to the northwest as a buttressed retaining wall. The bridge has continuous parapet walls with chamfered copings. It spans the Coventry Canal Navigation, which was initiated in 1768 under the direction of James Brindley.
