The bridge was built to carry a railway track. Engineered by W G Laws , W E Jackson & Co. of Newcastle upon Tyne built the bridge's foundations and masonry, and Hawks, Crawshay and Sons of Gateshead manufactured the ironwork. The bridge was opened to rail traffic on 6 October 1876.

Accessible from Wylam by walking the old railway or from the south bank of the Tyne, a shorter walk but less parking. This old railway bridge is in excellent condition and provides a wonderful peaceful crossing of the river with plenty of opportunity to view wildlife, the walk ends as the old railway joined the present line at a juncion just off the bridge. The structure is itself Grade 2 being an early rib arch design and is pleasing to the eye.

This was the perfect pub to end train day in. The pub was warm. The staff were very friendly and served us quickly. They kept the tables clear of clutter and empty glasses. Great selection of crisps!!

Children's playground and sports facilities for all. Football, cricket & basketball fields and courts. Small wheels pump track for skateboards, scooters etc. A lovely place to enjoy the outdoors in a beautiful village with a bit of history, shops and refreshments. Situated amongst cycle trails and a nature park on the River Tyne. NO DOGS thank you.
