The bridge carries the Leeds-Bradford railway over Henconner Lane. A strange name, but the local historians on the Secret Leeds website have failed to find its origins. See Image for the other side. The bridge probably dates from the opening of the Leeds, Bradford and Halifax Junction railway in 1854. The height limit is shown as 12ft 6in / 3.8m.
