Description
The Wyrley and Essington Canal footbridge at Ogley Junction is a Grade II listed canal footbridge that carries the towpath of the Anglesey Branch over the disused Ogley locks section of the Wyrley & Essington Canal. This canal was opened in 1797 and closed in 1954, while the bridge itself is dated 1829. It is constructed from cast iron with brick abutments and features a single elliptical arch. Each side of the arch is made from two castings that are bolted to a central "keystone." The parapets are designed with a lattice pattern of saltire crosses. One of the spandrels is inscribed with "HORSELEY IRON WORKS 1829." Part of this bridge is located in Hammerwick civil parish.
