Légende

The Albert Edward Bridge of the Coalbrookdale Railway over the Severn, [Shropshire], 1864. Engraving '...from an excellent photograph taken by Mr. W. Fall, photographer, of Market-square, Ironbridge, Salop...It is singular that the bridge which forms the subject of our Illustration - the most recent and one of the most enterprising works of its class - is within sight of the first iron bridge that was constructed in England - one which was constructed by the same ironmasters in 1779, and which has given a name to the rising and important town of Ironbridge, on the banks of the Severn'. Cast iron bridge designed by John Fowler. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
