The first, less massive than its successor, was probably contemporary with the construction of the Wall in <a href="/wiki/Anno_Domini" title="Anno Domini">AD</a> 122–4. It crossed the river on a series of at least eight hexagonal stone <a href="/wiki/Pier_(architecture)" title="Pier (architecture)">piers</a> about 13 feet (4 m) apart: the first of these (from the east) can be seen where it has been incorporated into the stonework of the later abutment. The overall length of the bridge between abutments was 200 feet (61 m). The width of these piers suggests that the bridge was intended to convey a structure 10 feet (3.0 m) wide – the width of the Broad Wall in this area – and that it therefore carried Hadrian's Wall across the river with a series of small stone arches. The masonry appears to have been plain but substantial, and the surviving hexagonal pier bears traces of dovetail cramps of iron set in lead which would have held the stones tightly together.<sup id="cite_ref-Johnson_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Johnson-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Second_bridge">Second bridge</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chesters_Bridge&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Second bridge"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The second bridge was much larger and the new eastern <a href="/wiki/Abutment" title="Abutment">abutment</a> was a far more lofty affair than before, with splayed wing walls both north and south of the bridge's actual line.
