Disused footbridge in Oswestry

Built in the mid 1860s, the footbridge is constructed of wrought iron, supported by two sets of cast iron columns and a central brick pier. The 60m metre long bridge extends from Gobowen Road on the left into the wall (at first floor level) of the former Cambrian Railway Works out of shot on the right. In September 2014, access to the bridge is prevented by a padlocked gate.
