Wednesday 17th October 1832

The Grosvenor Bridge, a single-span arch road bridge constructed from stone, was opened by Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, although it was not open to traffic until November 1833. It crosses the River Dee at Chester in England. The bridge is located on the A483 Grosvenor Road. At the time of its construction, the bridge was the longest single-span arch bridge in the world, a title that it retained for 30 years. It is a Grade I listed building.
