Description


THE CAUSEWAY 1. 1385 (East Side) Marlow Bridge SU 8586 1/60 16.7.49. I

2. 1831-36. Suspension bridge by William Tierney Clark. Clark was a pupil of Telford and assistant to Rennie. He designed bridges also at Hammersmith and Budapest both of which are now destroyed. The chairs are carried by pair of stone Doric triumphal arches on rusticated piers. The rails to footways have contemporary "Palm Tree" heads.

The whole bridge was very substantially restored in 1956-7 so that much of the ironwork and chains are now new. The appearance of the bridge however remains unchanged.
