Hunderton Railway Bridge, Hereford
Image: © Colin Cheesman Taken: 11 Jul 2012
This railway bridge across the River Wye was built in 1854 for the Newport, Abergavenny and Hereford Railway Company. Rebuilt in 1912/13 it was eventually to fall victim to the Beeching cuts in 1966. It was purchased and repainted by Hereford City Council and now accommodates a cyclepath. Could do with a fresh coat of paint now as it is looking a little tired after 18 years.
