You said in a report about Pembroke College’s new bridge (last Wednesday’s Oxford Mail) that it was believed that the last bridge built over an Oxford city centre street was the Bridge of Sighs 100 years ago.
In the early 1970s, my company (Hignell Oxford Ltd) built the bridge spanning Old Greyfriars Street, which linked the Westgate Centre with the car park.
We also built the pyramid-shape roofs over the shops.
