A Victorian latticed footbridge over a railway ashurst in Surrey, UK.
A lattice bridge is a form of truss bridge that uses a large number of small and closely spaced diagonal elements that form a lattice. Bridges of this type were patented in the 19th century by architect Ithiel Town, and are sometimes called Town lattice trusses. This type of construction was widely used when for pedestrian footbridges across railway lines in Britain.
