This article said the bridge was built in 1825, as per the external link, but the Falklands weren't settled by the British at that time, the Falklands Island Company wasn't founded until 1851 and the oldest suspension bridges mentioned in the suspension bridge article date from 1826.

According to History of the Falkland Islands, the Government of Argentina was in 1825 the only administrator of the islands' industry; maybe they constructed the bridge. OneEuropeanHeart 01:53, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
