Proposed bridge from near Dawes Point, Sydney, to near Milsons Point, North Shore, 1857 (rear) 1857
This design is the earliest existing proposal for a bridge spanning Sydney Harbour. With a flat span of cast iron, supported by towers at each end and lit by oil lamps all the way across, its low clearance over the water would have impeded shipping.
