Inglis Bridge, Steel bridge in Monmouth, Wales

The Inglis Bridge spans 27.4 meters across the River Monnow, connecting Vauxhall Fields with the Osbaston district through a single-span steel structure.

The Royal Monmouthshire Royal Engineers constructed this Mark II model bridge in 1931 to reach their training grounds, replacing an earlier wooden structure from 1905.

The bridge represents a period of military engineering advancement, designed by Charles Inglis who developed portable steel bridges for rapid deployment during World War I.

Since 2018, the Grade II listed bridge serves exclusively as a pedestrian crossing, measuring 2.9 meters in width with coordinates at 51.8169°N, 2.7158°W.

This structure remains the only public-use example of an Inglis bridge in Britain, featuring a Warren truss design that showcases early 20th-century military engineering.
