Summary
| Description |
English: This impressive (and pioneering) example of Victorian civil engineering spans the now-dismantled Rugby to Leamington railway line at the site of the former Marton Junction. It carries an ancient track, Ridgeway Lane, over the 60-feet-deep cutting where the railway pierced a ridge of high ground between Hunningham Hill and Snowford. The single-span wrought-iron bridge is of trussed lattice girder construction and when built in 1851 it was the longest such bridge ever constructed. In later years, four lattice columns and cross-ties were added to reinforce the original structure. |
