Kingsland Bridge, Grade II listed arch bridge in Shrewsbury, England
The metal bridge spans 212 feet across the River Severn with two main arch ribs supporting the suspended deck structure for vehicle traffic.
Civil engineer John William Grover designed the bridge in 1883, with construction by the Cleveland Bridge & Engineering Company costing £11,156.
The bridge represents a significant example of Victorian engineering, connecting the educational area near Shrewsbury School with the town center.
Vehicle users must pay a 20 pence toll to cross the bridge, which provides an essential route during periods when other crossings become impassable.
The high-level deck position allowed 1,500 people to cross on its first Sunday of operation, marking the beginning of continuous toll collection.
