Holme Mill Iron Bridge is a cast iron bridge located in Bedfordshire, England, dating from the early industrial period. The bridge represents the application of iron construction technology to utilitarian crossing structures, characteristic of nineteenth-century engineering development. Its cast iron composition and design reflect the expanding use of this material in infrastructure during the Industrial Revolution, when such bridges replaced earlier timber and masonry structures across English waterways and transport routes. The bridge survives as a physical record of Bedfordshire's industrial heritage and the technological innovations that transformed rural infrastructure during the modern period.
