About Cantlop Bridge

Cantlop Bridge is a solitary range cast-press street connect over the Cound Brook, situated toward the north of Cantlop in the area of Berrington, Shrewsbury. It was built in 1818 to a plan potentially by Thomas Telford, having at any rate been affirmed by him, and supplanted an unsuccessful cast press mentor connect developed in 1812. The outline of the scaffold was imaginative for the period, utilizing a light-weight plan of cast-press grid ribs to help the street deck in a solitary range, and seems, by all accounts, to be a downsized iant of a Thomas Telford connect at Meole Brace, Shropshire.

The extension is the main surviving Telford-affirmed cast-press connect in Shropshire, and is a Grade II recorded building and planned landmark. It initially conveyed the expressway street from Shrewsbury to Acton Burnell. The extension today stays as a landmark just, being shut to vehicular activity. It was skirted by a more present day neighboring solid extension worked in the 1970s. It is being taken care of by English Heritage and is unreservedly available to walkers. A layby exists for guests to stop and there is a data board. You can visit this place with your friends and loved ones.
