The Blackfriars Bridge that we have today is the second road bridge on this site. It was completed in 1869 and opened by Queen Victoria, whose statue can be seen on its northern approaches.
The bridge was designed by Joseph Cubitt, son of William Cubitt. Joseph had also designed the first Blackfriars Rail Bridge (1864) — now demolished except for its impressive cast iron Doric columns, which can be seen in the river. He designed the central spans of his road bridge to line up with those of the rail bridge.
Five wrought iron arches span the river, supported on piers constructed in granite-faced brickwork. Above the arches, each side of the bridge has an ornamental cornice and parapet. The piers have pointed cutwaters to help direct the water flow.

Note from asker:
| this link is about architectural design of roofs, not bridges, so I'm not sure how the word cornice would fit in since I couldn't find any references including the words "bridge" and "cornice" online. thank you anyway |
