Photographed during the viaduct's construction around 1897, this is one of the four girder spans that brought the London Extension across the Oxford Canal at Rugby, Warwickshire. The bridge was built by T. Oliver & Son, as part of their contract to build the Rugby to Woodford section of the Last Main Line (Contract No.4).
