This records that the bridge was erected by the Luddenden Foot Board of Health in 1882, and lists every member of the board at that time and their clerk, also the engineer, the mason, the ironfounders, and in small letters at the bottom the 'sculptor' who made the plaque, J Moses of Hebden Bridge. There was a bridge here in 1850, narrower and crossing at a different angle.
