Text Appearing After Image:
BYWELL. The most prominent object in this view is the New Bridge of stone across the RiverTyne, consisting of 5 arches of 45 feet span each, built at the expence of T. W. Beaumont.Esquire, the munificent proprietor of By well, who with that liberality for which he is so muchdistinguished, has declared his intention of allowing a free passage over it to the public; it willbe of great use to the surrounding district as well as the county generally, as the only means ofcrossing at present with horses is by a ford above the dam, which is frequently impassable. Aroad is now forming from the south end of the bridge to lead to the Railway Depot at Stocksfield,and also to the Hexham Turnpike Road. About 100 yards above the new bridge stood the remains of an ancient bridge. The portionleft consisted of part of two piers, which were removed when the new bridge was commenced,as they caused an obstruction to the current of the river. There is no record of the date of theerection of this bridge. T
