This suspension bridge was built 1854-1855 to
replace the busy ferry conveying workers
from Bridgeton and Calton to Hutchesontown. It is
a wrought iron structure with a single span of 67
metres.
It was repaired in 1871 and 1905 with major
structural repairs and refurbishment undertaken
between 1996 - 98
by Glasgow City Council, Roads and
Transportation ( Partially funded by the
European Union )
