It was some remote predecessor of these two historic struc- tures that was “falling down.” The present bridge, supporting a ceaseless flow of traffic, is as staunch and sturdy, as little likely to “fall down™” as it was on August 1, 1831, when it wa first opened for public service. Until 1769 London Bridge was the only bridge over the Thames in Lon- don, the only dry passageway between the city and the borough of Southwark, the famous “Surrey side” of the stream. It is still the most important bridge in the ‘ metropolitan district. But tHis bridge of 1769 was the so-called Old Bridge, the bridge that Chaucer and Shakespeare knew. There were London bridges still older. Bridge Built by Romans. The Romans built a bridge about 260 feet east of the present span. Possibly they built more than one at this point There is evidence that they had a bridge of boats here and that later they constructed a more permanent span on wooden piles. When the Old Bridge was taken down, in the first quarter of the nineteenth century, these ancient piles were found, still in place after nearly 2,000 years. In passing it is worth noticing that something much more important than rotted timbers was discovered during the dredging for the new bridge, namely, the fine bronze portrait head of the Emperor Hadrian, which is now on exhibition in the Brit- ish Museum. It is conjectured that this representation of the great Roman czar at one time adorned the parapet of a fortified gate at the Southwark end of the bridge. We know tbat the Roman structure wa& strongly defended, as in- deed it had need to be, for the country 'round about Londinium swarmed with | savages hostile to the alien occupation What happened to the Roman bridge when the Romans withdrew from Britain is not quite clear, but it is cer- tain that there was a bridge of some kind across the river i this neighbor- hood through Saxon and down to Nor- man times. First Definite Facts. However, it is not until we come to the reign of King Henry II that we have definite facts. It was this monarch {who, in 1167, commissioned Peter, the rectar of Colechurch or as some say the chaplain of the Church of St. Mary Cole, to construct a stone bridge about 200 feet below the present structure on a line with Fish Street Hill and just by ishop of Canterbury, as well as the sovereign, | had something to do with the arrange- FREIGHT CARLOAD HOUSEHOLD GOODS to San Prancisco; private party desires to share expense of club car at low railroad Gleveland 1852, Apt. 406 g guaranteed 55075, O v ats.
