Cannon Street Railway Bridge is one of the railway bridges across the River Thames in Central London. It is located between Southwark Bridge to the west and London Bridge to the east.

The Cannon Street Railway Bridge comprises five arches over the river. It was built for the South Eastern Railway. It was designed by Sir John Hawkshaw, who also designed the Cannon Street Station. The original bridge was completed in 1866, but the present structure is a reconstruction completed in 1981. The bridge was originally called Alexandra Bridge, after Alexandra of Denmark, who was to become the consort of the future King Edward VII.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
