New Ness Bridge under construction. Certainly later than 1947

The date appears might be incorrect.



The image shows a temporary bridge South of Ness Bridge and what seems to be a platform with cranes for demolition of the old suspension bridge.



The new bridge was built 1959/61 according to Pevsner.

As can be seen no date shown. The pedestrian bridge does not seem to have been added to the temporary bridge. No traffic is visible so not clear which bridge is in use.
