A bridge here crossed the River Trent carrying a railway which linked the Midland and Great Northern systems in Newark. This fell into disuse in the early 1970s and was subsequently demolished. The track at the side is a temporary roadway providing access to Newark Weir where a hydro-electric power scheme is being constructed.
