Description

Twyford Road Canal Bridge is a canal bridge built in the late 18th century. It is constructed from coursed squared marlstone with ashlar dressings. The bridge features a wide segmental arch that has projecting wedge-shaped impost blocks and a keyblock linked by an ashlar hood. Plain parapets rise over the arch and splay outwards to square piers. On the northern face of the bridge, there is a cast-iron plate inscribed with "177". Additionally, a large plate on the inner face of the parapet contains a warning for traction-engine drivers.
