DescriptionHull Bridge pre 1913 (archive ref PO-1-14-184) (30349149406).jpg
English: Hull Bridge (the ‘pre-1913 bridge’) circa.1900
This week’s picture from the past is a view of the River Hull at Hull Bridge around 1900.
The new bridge was originally built in 1804, but by 1913 it was demolished by the County Council, who installed a steel rolling bridge in its place. This followed various long running disputes between the Beverley Corporation and Driffield Navigation.
Once the Tickton bypass bridge had been built a short distance upstream, it no longer needed to carry road traffic and was replaced by a footbridge in 1976.
