Tees Newport Bridge

Tees Newport Bridge
Designed by Mott, Hay and Anderson and built by Dorman Long, this bridge was opened in 1934. It was the first large vertical lift bridge in Britain. With the decline in shipping using this stretch of the Tees the lifting apparatus was decommissioned in 1990.
