Canal bridge at Old Linslade is a bridge structure associated with the Grand Junction Canal, constructed in the early nineteenth century as part of the canal transport network that transformed inland navigation in England. The bridge carries a public road over the canal at Old Linslade in Buckinghamshire, serving as one of numerous crossing points engineered to maintain connectivity across the newly cut waterway. Built during the period of intensive canal construction between 1793 and 1805, when the Grand Junction Canal was being developed to link the Midlands with London, the bridge represents the practical engineering solutions required to integrate canal infrastructure with the existing road network. The structure reflects the industrial heritage of the canal age and remains a functional component of the surviving canal system in the region.
