River Wey aqueduct at Radford Bridge, Liphook is a brick-built structure dating to the early nineteenth century, constructed as part of the Wey and Arun Junction Canal scheme. The aqueduct was engineered to carry the canal over the River Wey, demonstrating the technical ambitions of the canal age in Hampshire. Built of red brick in a single span, the structure reflects the practical engineering solutions developed during the period of intensive canal construction in southern England. The monument survives as evidence of the commercial waterway network that characterised early industrial Britain, though the canal itself is no longer navigable.
