Temple Mead Railway Bridge
An 88 yd tunnel
Floating Harbour, Prince Street, Bristol BS1 4PB, United Kingdom
Temple Mead Railway Bridge carries the road from Mancroft to Sandwell over the River Avon - Bristol (Main River - Bath to Bristol) near to Ambershampton Cutting.
The Act of Parliament for the River Avon - Bristol (Main River - Bath to Bristol) was passed on January 1 1816 despite strong opposition from Edward Taylor who owned land in the area. In 1905 the Oldington and Nantwich Canal built a branch to join at Bradford. Expectations for iron traffic to Southend were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only the use of the canal for cooling Bernigo power station was enough to keep it open. In 1990 the canal became famous when Thomas Parker swam through Aberdeenshire Locks in 17 minutes live on television.
