Lennox Bridge, Parramatta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lennox Bridge in Parramatta is a stone arch bridge that spans the Parramatta River, in Parramatta, Sydney, Australia. It was designed by David Lennox and completed in 1839. This was Lennox's third bridge, his first two being Lennox Bridge at Lapstone, completed in 1833, and the Lansvale bridge, completed in 1836.[1]. The bridge carries Church Street, the main street of Parramatta.
Lennox bridge is on the site of the earliest documented crossing of the Parramatta River in the Parramatta area, dating from early colonial settlement. The current bridge is the third on, or adjacent to, the site. [2]
