1878. Built by Andrew Handyside and Company, Ironfounders of Derby, as was the
bridge spanning Friar Gate (qv). This former railway bridge (now confined to pedestrian
traffic) is an interesting structure. The deck which formerly carried the track
is hung from steel segmental arches with a span of some 130 ft. The arches are
of lattice construction. Stone abutments, and parapet walls at sides.
