Macclesfield Bridge (No.9)

In the north of Regent's Park, and also known as “Blow-up Bridge”, to commemorate the disaster in the early hours of 2 October 1874, when The Tilbury - a barge containing a concoction of coffee and nuts - exploded right under the bridge. Both boat and superstructure were immediately destroyed. Alongside its less volatile cargo, "The Spectator" would later report, was "the perilous combination of two or three barrels of petroleum and about five tons of gunpowder." The three men aboard the Tilbury - one of whom, it is presumed, lit a match that ignited the blast - were killed. Though the bridge was reduced to rubble, its cast iron columns were relatively unscathed, and reused when the bridge was rebuilt. Grid Ref: TQ 2749 8334 [RE-003-180]
