Description
Orginally built in 1883 in six months by the Ovingham Bridge Co. and purchased by Northumberland County Coucil in 1944 for £5,550. The timber deck was repaired in 1947 and 1973. A speed limit of 10mph and a weight limit of 3 tons were imposed in 1964. It was suggested a new bridge should be erected as a memorial to those who died in the 1914-1918 war. No rush.
