Description and History of Site:-
Railway bridge by Colonel Landmann, engineer for the London and Greenwich Railway.
Brick semicircular arch carried on rows of 14 cast-iron Doric columns which separate the carriageway from narrower arched footways on either side.
One of the two surviving bridges from London's first railway line, the London and Greenwich, opened as far as Deptford in 1836 (see also Abbey Street (qv)).
Spa Road to Deptford was opened 8 February 1836, so this railway bridge was the first to be built in London, and the oldest that remains operational.
Restoration completed June 2010.
