Gauxholme Bridge

A splendid skew bridge with a 31 m (102 ft) cast iron span, consisting of a pair of bowed ribs, with vertical hangars projected above the ribs in an ornamental Gothic arcade. It is one of three self-contained cast iron arch railway bridges constructed as part of George Stephenson's Manchester & Leeds Railway. This one, which crosses the Rochdale Canal in Todmorden, is the only one still in use.
