As well as the joint line that linked the East Midlands to Norfolk the Midland and Great Northern Railway companies also owned a short joint line in Newark linking their respective systems. This opened in 1868 and closed in 1973. This bridge was part of the embankment building up to the crossing of the River Trent.
