Cranshaw Woods Bridge

About

Cranshaw Woods Bridge is a bridge in yorkshire. (Listed bridge in West Yorkshire.) According to Wikipedia: "Crawshaw Woods Bridge is a Grade II listed cast iron overbridge which spans the Leeds to Selby railway line between Cross Gates and Garforth railway stations. It is notable for being the oldest railway-associated iron bridge still in daily use on an operational railway. Due to an upgrade to the line which runs beneath it, the abutments of the bridge will be raised by 4 feet 7 inches (1.4 m), and then the iron arch re-installed at a new height to accommodate electric overhead wires underneath."
