Description

A skew single-span concrete bridge carries the Belfast-Larne railway over Glenville Road (including two footpaths, one of which is raised). It is of painted reinforced-concrete throughout, all cast in situ. The arch is of three-centred profile, over which is a banded reveal of shallow segmental profile. The parapets have recessed rectangular panels and carry the date 1931 on the middle of their outside faces. The sloping wing walls on the west side have banded rustication and slightly advanced copings. The similarly detailed bank retaining walls on the east side merge with those of bridge HB21/10/001D. The deck has a slight downward fall from south to north in order to align the track with the burrowing junction under bridge HB21/10/001A which lies a short distance to the north. Restricted-headroom warning signs have been attached to the west face of the bridge (11'6" and 3.5m).
