Goldsworth or Langman's Bridge is a brick-built structure spanning the Basingstoke Canal in Surrey, dating to the canal's construction period in the late eighteenth century. The bridge represents characteristic canal engineering of the era, constructed to carry a roadway across the waterway as part of the infrastructure serving the surrounding landscape. Its survival as a listed monument reflects the historical importance of the Basingstoke Canal itself, which opened in 1794 and served as a significant transport artery for the region. The structure remains an example of functional Georgian-period engineering that facilitated communication and commerce between Basingstoke and the Thames navigations.
