Description

This is a road bridge built around 1826, likely constructed as part of Telford's new road to St. Albans. The bridge is made of brick with stone coping and features a single arched span. It has curved splays on both sides leading to the banks and keystones in the arches. There are parapets on either side of the bridge. On the west side, there is a late 19th-century cast-iron plaque installed by the County of Middlesex, warning against the use of "Locomotive Traction Engines and other ponderous Carriages."
