Cleobury Road Bridge (Bridge 35) allows the main road from Bridgnorth towards Cleobury Mortimer and [[Highley]] to pass underneath the Severn Valley Railway. It is a plate-girder bridge with a span of 55ft on the skew and 35ft on the square, and is located immediately adjacent to [[Bridgnorth|Bridgnorth Station]].<ref>[[Bibliography#Books|Marshall (1989)]] p. 104.</ref> The points controlling access to platforms 1 and 2 are situated beyond the bridge, which is therefore crossed by locomotives while 'running round'. The viewing gallery at the foot of [[Bridgnorth#Pan Pudding Hill|Pan Pudding Hill]] ends next to the bridge's northern abutment.
