Newcastle-upon-Tyne from the south-west, c1850. This view shows the High Level Bridge built by Robert Stephenson (1803-1859) between 1846 and 1849. It consists of six spans of cast iron bowstring arches, supported on stone piers, which carry the railway 120 feet above the Tyne. The bridge has two levels, with the railway on the upper deck and a roadway on the lower. Engraving after William Harvey (1796-1866).
