Known locally as Four Arches, this Grade II* listed structure consists of two parallel bridges or viaducts carrying the London-Bristol railway line. The Ridgeway passes through one of the arches whilst the Thames Path passes through the arch over the opposite riverbank.
The famous engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel (1806-1859) led the construction and, in his objective to create a direct and level route, the line crosses the Thames twice in the Goring Gap – at Moulsford and at Gatehampton. The bricks appear to spiral across the water because the bridges are built at a 60 degree angle to the river.
