Description
Single-span cast-iron pedestrian bridge over railway, dated 1886, comprising cast-iron lattice walkway supported on circular-profile cast-iron columns with fluted pedestals, with flights of steps having circular-profile newel posts with ball finials to each side of platform.
Appraisal
This pedestrian bridge displays a high degree of craftsmanship, adds artistic interest to its site and offers a counterpoint to the Italianate limestone structure of the railway station. It forms a group with related structures such as the station, signal box and goods shed. Its plaque detailing its manufacturer and date is of interest.
