Dobson Bridge, crossing the lodge adjacent to the River Croal in Queen's Park. Dobson Bridge was erected in 1878 to link the original park with a later extension to the south east, over the River Croal. The section over the river has ornamental stone piers with ornate cast iron plaques bearing the Bolton Crest. It has a parapet of latticed ironwork and is carried over the lodges adjacent to the river on cast iron columns with capitals, supporting ornamental spandrels.
