Description
Built of rock-faced rubble with arches turned in blue engineering brick. Five segmental arches set on 3 water piers at the S end, sloping slightly to the S where it is threaded through one arch of the earlier railway viaduct, built after 1862. The piers have triangular cutwaters on the upstream side. The arches comprise five courses of brick, and a 150mm bull-nosed outer regulating string. Flush spandrels rising to a horizontal string at the base of the snecked parapet, which is coped with flush margin-dressed flat stones. End pilasters. A further projecting course is placed at the springing of the arches. On the inside face of the parapet an inscription reads TO COMMEMORATE / THE CORONATION OF/ KING EDWARD VII. The southern arch, spanning the Llangollen Canal, is numbered 49A in the canal bridge series.
