This unusual skewed narrow bridge would probably have been built around 1906 by the joint venture of the Great Western Railway and Great Central Railway to allow access through the new railway embankment to Colonel William Du Pre's Golf Club, as part of the commercial deal that allowed the London to Birmingham railway to pass through the Wilton Park estate. The golf course subsequently became the Beaconsfield Golf Club.
