Default Old bridge over Brick Lane

On a recent walk down Brick Lane I noticed the remnants of an old bridge
over the road.
I'm guessing it was railway but since all the Great Eastern lines are
underneath here, where did this line come from.

Sounds like the Braithwaite viaduct carrying the original Great
Eastern line into Bishopsgate terminus; after a lot of argument about
demoltion there should still be more than 'remnants' of it visible.
