St. Olave's Swing Bridge

This bridge, and the nearby Beccles Swing Bridge, were constructed to replace two older railway swing bridges.
Contracts for both bridges were let to the Horseley Bridge and Engineering Co [1]
See The Engineer 1927/02/18 for a description and illustrations applicable to both bridges.
