Genuine Original 19c Stereo Photograph of Telfords 1826 Menai Bridge, looking towards Anglesey. This photograph shows the original construction of twin roadways. Constructed with multiple wrought-iron chain links, and is over one hundred feet above the Menai Straits to allow Sailing Ships to pass beneath. Designed for horse traffic and stage coaches taking the Royal Mail from London to Ireland. The chains were replaced and a single road-deck added in 1939, only stopping the traffic for 24 hours. A rare chance to own a real piece of British History. This item is unconditionally guaranteed to be original and as described.
