Heritage listing
Reason for designation: A typical example of the bridge design associated with the Montgomeryshire Canal, which also shows a typical pattern of repair. History: Probably built 1794-7 as part of the first phase of construction of the Montgomeryshire Canal, which was completed as far as Garthmyl in these years. Parapets and part of the N face of the bridge later rebuilt, possibly as part of a programme of works carried out by the Shropshire Union Railways and Canal Company towards the end of the C19. Exterior: Single span brick arched bridge. Rendered red brick lower structure, including segmental archway. Blue brick repair work to N side, and to parapets above string course. Curved stone copings to parapet, and terminal piers. Location: Carries a field track across the canal, 400m approx. NE of bridge 128 and the B4390 road into Berriew.
