What workmanship has gone into this bridge really amazing. This is just one side as the bridge is having some work done on it.
An extraordinary iron and steel bridge carrying the former Manchester and Leeds Railway over the Rochdale Canal
Located just south of Todmorden town centre. Best seen from the canal towpath. Access from Bacup Road which passes under the railway (can park on A6033 Rochdale Road).
102 ft span.
Designed by George and/or Robert Stephenson.
Built in 1840. Extensively modified in 1906 by the insertion of deep steel beams to carry the load, while retaining the iron structure as a facade.
