Description
MATERIALS: west (low mileage) elevation: Bath stone ashlar throughout, apart from small patches of engineering brick repair (e.g. arch rings). East (low mileage) elevation: similar, except the entire face below the cornice has been refaced in red and purple contrasting GWR engineering brick. Soffits have largely been refaced in similar engineering brick, as well.
DESCRIPTION: level parapet and a vertical face continuing unbroken as wing walls, which curve slightly at the outer ends. Into this face of ashlar are set the central 30ft [9m] span and much lower side arches with spans of 15ft 6in [4.6m]. The transverse arches in the piers are blocked. Bold, stepped cornice. Parapet terminates in square piers. Coping is bold and square.
The bridge is located on the edge of Chippenham in gentle countryside. Although it is in a cutting, it is visible from certain vantage points in the wider landscape.
