![Iron Protector on Bridge No 130, Grand Union Canal. When barges were towed by horses there were places where the tow rope could rub against the arch of a bridge. If they had come against the brickwork the hawser would act like a saw, cutting into the brickwork. For this reason iron bars were mounted on the vulnerable brick corners to avoid damage to the bridge.For more relevant pictures see [[1462916]]. by Chris Reynolds – 06 May 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/46/29/1462979_e14c8a63_120x120.jpg)

It is on the road between Marsworth (in Buckinghamshire) and Gubblecote and Long Marston (in Hertfordshire). It is a typical hump-back bridge which was not designed for modern road traffic, and a small informal layby provides limited car parking.Other pictures of the Bridge and its immediate environment.[[1462973]].[[1462977]].[[1462972]].[[1462969]].[[1462979]].[[1462982]].[[325999]]. by Chris Reynolds – 01 May 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/46/29/1462916_e37d4cc6_120x120.jpg)

![Traffic Warning Signs for Canal Bridge at Marsworth. The bridges over the Grand Union Canal were not designed for modern traffic, and many on minor roads, such as the road from Marsworth to Gubblecote and Long Marston. Bridge No. 130 is too narrow for vehicles to pass, and the “hump back†means that as you approach the bridge you cannot see if anything is coming in the opposite direction. If the approach is steep there is also a danger of lorries with a long wheel base grounding on the top of the bridge. In addition there is a weight limit and iron bars will have been inserted to stop the bridge spreading under the weight of modern traffic. See [[1462969]].The informal car park serves the people who live in nearby narrowboats, and fishermen.For more relevant pictures see [[1462916]]. by Chris Reynolds – 20 May 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/46/29/1462972_4fead6c5_120x120.jpg)
