Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The suspension bridge over the river Tees, Stockton and Darlington Railway, 1830. At last it connected the southern part of the Durham coalfield with a deep water port (Middlesbrough). The Tees, like the Tyne and the Wear, became a major exporter of coal.
It was found that the bridge could not safely carry trains in the configuration shown. It was afterwards replaced by a cast iron girder bridge (Taylor, Description of the River Tees, (1865) Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers, 64). |
