Description

Workington Bridge is a road bridge built in 1841, as indicated by the inscription on the central parapet stones, which reads "WORKINGTON BRIDGE, BUILT AD 1841, THOMAS MILTON CIVIL ENGINEER, THOMAS NELSON BUILDER" and is identical on each side. The bridge is constructed from calciferous sandstone ashlar and features three segmental arches with rusticated voussoirs, supported by two round-ended piers. It has a solid parapet with chamfered coping on three paired pilasters, and there are cast iron parapet railings over the northern arch. The later approach walls on either side and the bridge over the former railway are not considered of special interest.
