    The Hornibrook Bridge, linking Clontarf and Brighton, was opened in 1935, and was one of the longest and oldest timber bridges in Australia.
    However, it was the timber that became the bridge's downfall, with too much of the Hornibrook's hardwood - predominantly ironbark - rotting for the bridge to be safe.
    The bridge closed in 2011 and is now demolished, although a 100m section of it is preserved and refurbished for historical purposes (and also for the use of local fishermen).
    It was replaced by the new Ted Smout Memorial Bridge, and includes a pedestrian and cycle pathway.
