You're looking at the Grosvenor Railway Bridge across the River Thames, sometimes known as the Victoria Railway Bridge. There are actually two bridges on this site, side by side. The eastern bridge was built between 1858 and 1860 to carry the London, Chatham and Dover Railway into Victoria Station. The western bridge was built in 1866 to carry the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. Each of the bridges are built of wrought iron and have five arches. Both bridges were rebuilt in the sixties so that the old piers could be strengthened with concrete.
