Hi now let me start off with a little humour and I'm not asking if the man in front would make a good submission lol. My question is about the bridge as this is the last one of the three bridges that was along this street and the bridge is the only live railway line left. The three bridges were used not just for the old coal mine but one also was a local line which Ollerton Edwinstowe are trying to get back up and being used for the local area to help reduce number of cars on road for commuting to work etc.

Generic railway bridge - no historic or community significance, you can find 1000s of identical bridges all over the UK. 1*, does not meet any criteria.
Good to know but I can say it is significant to the community its part of their history but can see your point
Unless a railway bridge is listed by Historic England (or regional equivalent) for it's historic/architectural importance they're pretty much a straight fail as generic infrastructure.
Looks like a generic railway bridge to me. Yeah, you argue about it being part of the local history but it will most likely be rejected for not meeting criteria.
If it was architecturally unique or listed in a historic building registry, such as Historic England, then it might stand a chance.
If it’s that significant, maybe see if the local council will be willing to place a plaque about it. Then you could nominate the plaque.
Hi just so people don't misinterpret what I was saying I said I understand that it would be rejected on basis of generic etc but not on grounds of having no significance to the area because many people of my husbands and older and any that grew up when all 3 bridges where there would know exactly about them as everyone would use them as points of giving directions or meeting area by saying go under and pass the 3 bridges or we will meet at the 3 bridges. I'm not arguing and might look into the council maybe putting up a plaque.
Appreciate all the help
