Green Bridge (MLN19303)

Green Bridge is a Grade II listed structure located on the edge of Chippenham, set in gentle countryside. The bridge features a level parapet with a vertical face that extends unbroken into wing walls, which curve slightly at the outer ends. The west elevation is constructed of Bath stone ashlar throughout, with small patches of engineering brick repair in the arch rings. The east elevation is similar, but the entire face below the cornice has been refaced in contrasting red and purple GWR engineering brick. The soffits have also been largely refaced in similar engineering brick.

The bridge has a central span of 30 feet (9 meters) and much lower side arches with spans of 15 feet 6 inches (4.6 meters). The transverse arches in the piers are blocked. It features a bold, stepped cornice, and the parapet terminates in square piers with bold, square coping. Although the bridge is situated in a cutting, it remains visible from certain vantage points in the surrounding landscape.
