Description
Goose Green Bridge is a railway overbridge built around 1847 for the Kendal and Windermere Railway, designed by Joseph Locke and constructed by Thomas Brassey. It is made of quarry-faced local limestone and features a single-span design.
This bridge is part of a series designed by Locke for the railway, sharing a common architectural style. It has an elliptical arch with alternating voussoirs that extend to the undersides and spring from an impost band. The arch is flanked by slightly projecting, battered piers, and there are splayed and coped wing walls, with the southern approach having raised walls. The parapet walls, which sit on a moulded string course, are made of small limestone blocks and topped with flat coping stones. The deck includes a concrete saddle and kerb.
