Title

North Bridge, Halifax - TWA00249

Description

NORTH BRIDGE is of cast iron and has two spans each one hundred and sixty feet long. It replaced a stone bridge having six arches which was opened in 1771 which had replaced a wooden pre-decessor. The foundation stone of the present bridge was laid on April 14th, 1869 and the bridge was declared open on October 25th, 1871 at an approximate cost of £21,000. The wealth of material available on North Bridge merits a paper devoted solely to this bridge,
