Before getting the train back to Kings Norton, I saw this railway bridge with coat of arms on each side. On Upper St John Street. Grade II listed. LICHFIELD SK1109SE ST JOHN STREET 1094-1/8/170 Railway Bridge 06/03/70 (Formerly Listed as: UPPER ST JOHN STREET Railway Bridge Abutments) GV II Railway bridge. 1849, altered 1882 and 1969. By Edward Adams (Clayton) or Thomas Johnson of Lichfield (V C H). For South Staffordshire Railway. Ashlar and cast-iron. Large ashlar abutments have plain plinths and top friezes with tall parapets with cornices. Each has to north 2 relief armorial bearings below frieze and one large one to parapet; the lower shields with arms of Bishops of Lichfield: Hackett, de Clinton, Lonsdale and Hayworth, the upper shields with the old Borough seal and the leopards of England (originally placed in the centre of the parapet, north and south).
