Ashton Swing bridge over the River Avon. Built in 1906, this provided rail access to the docks with road access over the top of the bridge.
Ashton Swing Bridge over the River Avon, which provide rail access on the bottom and road access across the top. The pivot point is the right hand pillar and the section between the two pillars would swing out to provide access to ships into the River Avon. Over the top of the swing pillar was a hut which controlled the bridge. Built in 1906, it last opened in the 1950s and today is a footpath.
On the Ashton Swing Bridge. Built in 1906, this was originally a double track railway as this level, with the road over the top. Today it is just a footpath as whilst there are still rails on the left hand side, it is doubtful that the bridge is still strong enough to take a train.
Ashton Swing Bridge, road level. This bridge originally had rails on the bottom level (just about visible on the right hand side), the road ran across the top at this level.
