Albert Bridge, Manchester, 1844. 'This handsome bridge has just been erected on the site of the late New Bailey Bridge, across the Irwell, from Bridge-street, Manchester, to New Bailey-street, Salford; the old bridge having been closed to the public on the 26th of June last year, and wholly taken down, after having stood 59 years that month...The bridge, from the level of the water, has been erected under the superintendence of Mr. C. Carrington, bridgemaster of the hundred of Salford, and the structure is generally admired for its massive and substantial character, and spacious carriage and footways'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
