Crescent Bridge - The bridge was built for the Great Northern Railway at a cost of £34,000 to replace two troublesome level crossings and a subway. It was opened by the Mayoress Mrs J G Barford on 16 April 1913. The original Crescent of 1830s houses was demolished to make way for the bridge. The steelwork and main 48.7m bow string lattice span was built by Cleveland Bridge and Engineering Company of Darlington and the bridge was refurbished in 2001 by Jackson Rail.
