Walton Hall Bridge
at Walton Hall, near Wakefield, Yorkshire
Thomas Waterton, father of Charles Waterton, had a mansion built in 1767-8 on an island in the grounds of Walton Hall. It was accessed by an elegant iron bridge, built in 1828, which still survives. The castings were made by the Milton Iron Works. [1]
Waterton Hall is now Waterton Park Hotel.
