Argyle Bridge, Heritage road bridge in The Rocks, Sydney, Australia

The Argyle Bridge extends across Argyle Street and Argyle Cut, connecting Cumberland Street with small obelisk-shaped pylons adorning its abutments.

Built in 1912, this structure replaced two earlier bridges from the 1860s that crossed Argyle Cut at different heights on Gloucester and Cumberland Streets.

The bridge represents a fundamental element of The Rocks district, demonstrating the evolution of Sydney's urban planning and transportation infrastructure.

The structure underwent substantial repairs in 2008 to address structural issues, including concrete deterioration and crack formation in various sections.

The bridge incorporates the preserved Argyle Stairs and features an inscription from the former Princes Street Bridge on the south wall of Argyle Cut.
