Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The Iron Bridge, built in 1779, and Coalport Bridge, built in timber in 1780, rebuilt in 1800 and again, in iron, in 1818, were surveyed from 1999 to 2001 and 2001 to 2004 respectively. The Iron Bridge proved to be a palimpsest of minor and major repairs. The Coalport Bridge survey highlighted the apparent lack of alterations to the ironwork of 1818, whilst supporting the documentary evidence for the three major phases of construction in the bridge's history. Despite this, both structures retained some similar major component parts albeit comprising individual methods of construction. Evidence for both bridge surveys pointed to abundances in the understanding of bridge construction from the eighteenth to the nineteenth century. | |||||||||
