NY4056 BRIDGEWATER ROAD
671-1/7/62 (East side)
Wall, railings and piers to west of
the Sands Sports Centre

GV II

Wall, railings and piers for Cattle Market, now around Sports
Centre. Probably 1895. Low chamfered red sandstone wall
surmounted by heavy cast-iron speared railings, each alternate
rail having a speared ball finial, with interval columns. Red
sandstone end piers of squared shaft with round chamfered
angles on moulded plinth and modillioned segmental capitals.
The railings are stepped in sections with the slope. When the
Eden Bridge was widened in 1932, these railings would be set
back from their original position and are beside the ramp
parallel with the bridge giving access to Swifts Bank. See
under Newmarket Road for another section of these railings.
