Bridge 19

Bridge 19 is an accommodation underbridge allowing access from Severn Lodge Farm to the south end of a large field next to the River Severn. A public footpath also runs under the bridge via a stile. The photograph shows the view from the Severn Lodge side looking East, with the River Severn seen beneath the bridge and Bromley Farm on the opposite hilltop. Bridge 20 allows access to the same field.

The bridge is situated on the border between Worcestershire (Wyre Forest) and Shropshire, and the area is therefore also known as "County Boundary". Travelling north, it is the first bridge not to appear on the Wyre Forest District Council Local Heritage List and is therefore presumed to lie just within Shropshire.

In June 2017 the SVRSevern Valley Railway announced problems with an embankment slippage in the Bridge 19 area, evidence of which had first been detected in 2016 as a series of track "twist" faults. As of June 2017 the design for the remedial work required to stabilise the area was complete and work had started to prepare the site for the stabilisation scheme.[1][2]
