Cantlop Bridge, Cast iron road bridge in Berrington, England.
The single-span bridge crosses Cound Brook with four arched lattice ribs connected by five transverse cast-iron members and metal deck plates.
Thomas Telford approved the design and construction of this bridge in 1818 to replace an earlier unsuccessful cast iron structure from 1812.
The bridge represents an important example of early 19th-century engineering innovation in Shropshire, utilizing lightweight cast-iron construction techniques.
Visitors can access the pedestrian-only bridge via a convenient layby located near the modern concrete bridge that replaced it in the 1970s.
This structure remains the last surviving Telford-approved cast-iron bridge in Shropshire, featuring dressed red and grey sandstone abutments with chamfered ashlar quoins.
