Tickford Bridge, Cast iron road bridge in Newport Pagnell, England
The Grade I listed Tickford Bridge spans 17.68 meters across the River Ouzel with a symmetrical arch made of cast iron and local brick.
Engineers Thomas Wilson and Henry Provis designed this bridge in 1810, incorporating engineering techniques that were advanced for that time period.
The bridge contributes to Newport Pagnell's heritage as one of the 21 remaining cast iron bridges in Britain that still carries regular traffic.
Located on St John Street, the bridge connects both sides of Newport Pagnell while a nearby set of sluice gates controls flooding of River Great Ouse.
This structure maintains its near-original condition despite continuous use since 1810, making it the oldest iron bridge globally still carrying modern vehicles.
