    Ferry Bridge is a pretty Victorian foot bridge over the River Trent.



    Built to replace a small ferry service that had operated at the same site since the 13th century. and gifted to the town by brewing magnate Michael Arthur Bass, later Lord Burton.



    The bridge is a "semi-suspension" bridge, of which this is the first and only one of its kind in Europe to be built to this design.
