A Cache placed with a view of the famous Newport Transporter Bridge
It is one of fewer than 10 transporter bridges that remain in use worldwide; only a few dozen were ever built. It is the only operational transporter bridge in Britain apart from the Tees Transporter Bridge.
The bridge was designed by French engineer Ferdinand Arnodin. It was built in 1906 and opened by Godfrey Charles Morgan, 1st Viscount Tredegar, on 12 September 1906
The design was chosen because the river banks are very low at the desired crossing point (a few miles south of the city centre) where an ordinary bridge would need a very long approach ramp to attain sufficient height to allow ships to pass under, and a ferry could not be used during low tide at the site.
