Notes:

  • This record represents the bridge as rebuilt with the midspan pier in the 1880s.
  • Ann Saul sent a synopsis of this bridge's history from La Roche-Guyon, Bourg Feodal de l'Ancien Vexin Francais by Ernest Colas. "The author states that the bridge was built in 1838, originally with two pylons, one on each bank of the Seine. In 1882, gale force winds turned over a wide stretch of the bridge floor. Afterwards, another pylon was placed in the middle of the river; however, the bridge was not considered stable enough for modern transportation (the automobile, perhaps). Plans were made for a new bridge and the old one was demolished. The new bridge was never built because of World War I."
  • Replaced 1838 La Roche-Guyon - La Roche-Guyon, Val-d'Oise and Yvelines, France.
