Bridge No 49 (Awbridge Bridge) and associated lock
(Formerly in Wombourne C.P.)
II
Canal bridge and lock. Circa 1770. Red brick with stone coped parapet. Single three-centred arch with perforated parapet above, separated from the parapets of the abutments by pilaster strips with pyramidal caps. The towpath underneath the bridge is flanked to the left by a coped wall; to the rear a short flight of steps leads up to the lock. The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal was opened through Wombourne parish in 1770; the engineer was James Brindley and Awbridge bridge and lock may represent his first attempt at combining a lock and a bridge on a public road.
