A double-decker horse tram crossing the original Seaview Road bridge on the way to Christchurch
[ca. 1900]
The New Brighton Tramway Company built the bridge in 1887 and owned it and the tramline (now Pages Road) until the Christchurch Tramway Board took over in 1905. Note the gate at the entrance, the existence of which would have reinforced the Company's ownership of the structure.
