An original East Lancashire Railway Bridge of 1846 known locally as the Monkey Bridge because of the cast iron 'cage-effect' and the fact that adventurous young men would swing on the underside of bridge right across the river Irwell. Photo: A footway was provided within the bridge for pedestrians.
