This is a photograph from the 1800's showing good detail about the bridge etc.
If you click on the image it will enlarge.
Then click your mouse over that image, and it will be able to
enlarge it again
quite a bit more, showing fascinating details.
On the left appears to be a gas light for the bridgeway illumination although many were
