As the bridge is attached to the viaduct this listing includes the bridge even if it is not mentioned specifically in the listing description. <br />http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-437019-railway-viaduct-extending-from-platforms<br /><br />By virtue of being attached to the listed structure the bridge is effectively protected. This should however be confirmed by the local EH officer responsible. PPS5 covers this aspect of associated structures in more depth, as does EH new document on The Setting of Heritage Assets.

The right of navigation includes masted vessels, even now, so if a riparian owner wanted to berth such a vessel upstream of the bridge railtrack would have to unweld it and lift it so no wonder they want to make it disappear. Thanks to the slimeballs at the Catford Bunker the only two wharves downstream of the DLR are the waterboard and faircharm. I was the only objector at the planning hearing for the DLR demanding that they build it at the height of the lifted bridge. Needless to say, I was completely ignored. Even the poxy PLA refused to help, "custodians of the river?" PAH !<br />A few years previously to this I was going to buy a beautiful 150ft Edwardian whaler (now earthkinds "Ocean Defender" ) what stopped that plan was when I asked Railtrack to lift the bridge. They made it clear that they'd fight me all the way so I bottled out. The navigation right is how you fight them I reckon.Juliannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129884466436576116.post-35615970947438135172011-11-09T22:47:05.850+00:002011-11-09T22:47:05.850+00:00Dunno, how do you find out?Dunno, how do you find out?Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07914930883748622529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129884466436576116.post-20417569701315793462011-11-09T21:53:26.122+00:002011-11-09T21:53:26.122+00:00Dear crosswhat, is this section of the railway wit...Dear crosswhat, is this section of the railway within the section that is listed?Keithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129884466436576116.post-69594152321613280792011-11-09T13:51:40.676+00:002011-11-09T13:51:40.676+00:00it would be tragic if this piece of industrial her...it would be tragic if this piece of industrial heritage were to go, it's a striking and modernistic 'sculpture' - the 'Angel of Deptford' you might say.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
