Gaunless Bridge Heritage Restoration Project

Of all the projects we have completed this year, none stand out more than the restoration of the Gaunless Bridge. Designed by railway pioneer George Stephenson in 1823, the unique and groundbreaking iron structure formed part of the world’s first public steam-powered railway - the Stockton and Darlington line. Taking on the task of restoring this historic bridge has been a captivating challenge.
