Lillie Bridge, Railway bridge in Fulham, England.
Lillie Bridge is a railway bridge in Fulham that connects Old Brompton Road with Lillie Road using a steel and concrete construction. It crosses the West London Line and carries both pedestrian and vehicle traffic across this important transport corridor.
The bridge was constructed during Victorian-era expansion of West London and has supported transport infrastructure ever since. It was named after Sir John Scott Lillie, a local landowner who held significant property in the area.
The bridge stands near the former location of Lillie Bridge Grounds, which hosted the FA Cup Final in 1873 and various athletic competitions.
Located near West Brompton station, the bridge provides an essential crossing for pedestrians and vehicles between West Kensington and Fulham. The area is easily accessible and well connected to nearby public transport options.
The bridge sits at the boundary between residential neighborhoods and major railway infrastructure, notably the Lillie Bridge Depot maintenance facility. This depot serves as a significant rail maintenance hub that few visitors realize operates directly beneath and around the structure.
