Framed Print of Nottingham Bridge, old and new, 1871. Creator: Unknown
Nottingham Bridge, old and new, 1871. The new bridge [top] over the river Trent...was designed and superintended by Mr. Marriott O. Torbotton [sic]...The foundations rest on the solid sandstone rock...the ornamental parts of the stonework are of Darley Dale stone, and of red Mansfield and Mansfield Woodhouse stone...The contractors are Messrs. Benton and Woodiwiss, of Derby, for the general building and masonry; Messrs. Andrew Handyside and Co. of Derby and London, for the ironwork; Messrs. Mawer and Ingle, of Leeds, for the carving; and Mrs. Marshall, of Nottingham, for painting and decorations...The total cost of the bridge will slightly exceed the sum of £30, 000. Our view of the new bridge is one looking down the stream, with the town of Nottingham on the left hand and Colwick Wood upon the hill in the distance. The old bridge [bottom] was an interesting patchwork structure, built at different periods, as one or another of the ancient arches decayed. There were portions belonging to the transition between the Norman and the Early English, in the middle of the twelfth century...The foundations of the old bridge were formed of oak piles, which were driven into the gravel bed of the river'.
