Pevsner singles out a number of the "unusually ornate" railway structures around Dulwich. They were designed by Charles Barry junior on behalf of the governors of Dulwich College. This bridge, on the line between Herne Hill and West Dulwich stations, has quite ornate cast iron details. After a lot of detective work I was able to establish that it was built in 1863.
