This is the view from the north looking from the adjacent pedestrian bridge towards Newtown Bridge and the former steelworks. The arch dates from 1813 and carried a former railway line across the valley. The bridge is a Grade II listed structure as it is one of the largest early horse drawn railway bridges in Britain. It is a truly massive and inspiring structure.
