Derby - Its Rise and Progress

APPENDIX
TOWN FORDS, BRIDGES, AND HIGHWAYS

[Editor's Note: The Sketch Map referred to below is not available to us]

The earliest passage over the Derwent in Derby, was the British ford across the Holmes from the Morledge to the eastern bank. A second route appears to have branched to the left and followed the line of the present Long Bridge, the weir there having been built (for facility in construction) along the line of the ford. (A A A A on sketch map.) These fords were evidently used for many centuries after the Christian era, for the straight character of Thorn Tree Lane (B B) implies that this thoroughfare was originally a causeway across the marsh from the Saxon town to this ancient British ford.

The passage over the river, second in time, was the Roman bridge at Little Chester (C) which also appears to have been in use long after the Roman occupation, for City Road (D), with which it was connected, formed a portion of the later road to Nottingham, as may still be seen. The route from this bridge to the Saxon town of Northworth was along the Roman way now represented by Kedleston Street and Nun Street (E E), where, after crossing the Markeaton Brook at a ford, the traveller entered the town by the road now called Friar Gate (F).

At what time the Roman bridge fell into decay is uncertain, also the period at which the ford across the river (G), now represented by the causeway at St. Michael's

326APPENDIX. 

mills, came into existence. Both the Kedleston Road (H) and the old Duffield Road (Darley Grove) (J) appear to have concentrated on this ford by means of Derwent Lane (K) (or Eagle Lane, as it is named by Mr. John Keys), shown in Speed's map of 1610 running down to the river bank. This causeway may have been a crossing of stepping-stones, available for the poorer class of traveller in the summer time. At Derby, as at many other places, it was utilised later by the builder of the weir, furnishing him with an easy and substantial foundation; so that the still existing name, "the causeway", may indicate the situation of the earlier stone ford. What compensation was made by the Church to the travellers and merchants who were then compelled to pay toll at the bridge there is no record to tell, although it may be noticed that a tradition exists that St. Michael's mills, in time of famine, were bound by old custom to grind the corn of the poor free of charge, and further, it will be remembered that the wealthy townspeople gave doles of food to the poor in corn, and not in flour, a custom which somewhat confirms this tradition.

The first St. Mary's bridge (L) belongs, as indirect evidence shows, to the time of the Danish occupation, its situation being more favourable than that of the Roman bridge, for the gradient of Bridge Gate is gentler than that of Well Street (L L), and further, the road to the Saxon town by way of St. Helen's Street (M) and Ford Street (N) is shorter. It may be noticed also that this route crossed the Markeaton Brook at a point where there was an islet (O), the ford still denoted by Ford Street.

The first St. Mary's Bridge, of timber, may have been rebuilt, but was more probably extensively repaired in the reign of King John, and remained a wooden bridge until about the year 1330, when the stone structure of which the remains are still to be seen took its place. This wooden bridge doubtless bore a close resemblance

 APPENDIX.327

to the present "Long Bridge", excepting that it may have been six feet wide instead of four feet, and that the roadway was generally broken by dangerous gaps.

Along the Markeaton Brook, the progress from fords to bridges was slower. The northern highway crossed the brook by a ford (P P) below St. Peter's Church, the name "Litchurch" probably meaning the "church at the ford". This road appears to have taken the place of the earlier Saxon highway now known as Becket Well Lane (Q), after the disappearance of the Saxon Castle, for in those days merchants did not always travel past these strongholds with impunity. The position of the ancient holy well indicates, however, that Becket entered the town by this route, in the train of King Henry II., in 1155.

Green Lane (R), or Newlands Lane, belongs to a later period, when the woodland on the hillside was cut down to form more arable land for the burgesses, and a new road ("the Green Lane") was constructed along the boundary line of the parishes of St. Peter and St. Werburgh.

The ford (P P) on the northern highway just referred to, appears to have been gradually replaced by a causeway running from the northern bank and terminating at a bridge (St. Peter's) over the stream. The ground (S) thus enclosed between the causeway and the Wardwick was probably reclaimed by the monks of the monastery of St. James, for the Corn Market, lying close to their walls, implies that the great fair of St. James was held on this site. As this space was slowly built upon, the fair ground became limited to the "slang" (S L)- the narrow strip of ground lying between the houses and the northern edge of the brook. Along the "slang" Derby "wakes" were held, an annual fair which disappeared about the time that the brook was covered over and Victoria Street formed. In those days of narrow thoroughfares, the Corn Market was regarded as a spacious area, for even

328APPENDIX. 

as late as 1712, Woolley describes it as "the Great Street". The original line of the marsh at this place may be indicated by the boundary between the parishes of All Saints and the outlying Litchurch (St. Peter's) which runs partly along St. James' Lane.

Below this causeway the marsh subsequently became utilised by the tanners and fellmongers, although the name Brede Lepe, which existed as late as Speed's time, may refer to a fish-weir or eel-trap (T) which partially enclosed the broad stream in this neighbourhood in the earlier centuries. These fish-weirs, a common feature of those times, were constructed with interlaced osiers, probably obtained in Derby from Willow Row.

The two oldest bridges over the brook were those at Bold Lane (U) and St. James' Lane (V), the former affording a shorter route from St. Mary's Bridge to Cheapside, and the latter being the property of the monks. Bold Lane Bridge remained a narrow wooden structure to the close of its career, being for centuries superseded by the adjoining St. Werburgh's Bridge (W). The close proximity of these bridges naturally requires an explanation, for our forefathers were not accustomed to provide public money for unnecessary purposes, or to build two bridges where one sufficed. No records exist in answer to this question, but the following facts may be offered. The town complaint of 1276 states that Sir Robert Esseburn had for twenty years appropriated "toll and passage from those persons using 'Donnebrugge'" - a bridge belonging to the borough, "to the great detriment of the King's majesty". Evidently this "town-bridge" was a valuable property, a description applying to Bold Lane Bridge at that time, and it is presumable that the townspeople, on the formation of a new Market Place, about the year 1285, built the more commodious bridge of St. Werburgh's, thus forming a more convenient thoroughfare and at the same time diverting the traffic from Bold Lane Bridge and

 APPENDIX.329

circumventing the robber-knight in the collecting of his illegal tolls. Sadler Gate then became the chief thoroughfare from the westward to the Market Place, for St. James' Bridge remained a narrow wooden structure until comparatively modern times, and the mediaeval character of St. James' Lane, with the posts at the bridge end, suggests that it ceased to be used for vehicular traffic some centuries before its demolition. It was merely a footway in Woolley's time.

Of late years history has repeated itself, for the widening of this lane to form the modern St. James' Street, has diverted traffic from Sadler Gate to the old thoroughfare. Another instance occurred when the first Exeter Bridge was built about 1810. The inhabitants of Bridge Gate and neighbourhood, anticipating a loss of traffic, petitioned the Corporation to close the new thoroughfare, but its value to the town generally was too apparent, and the petitioners were ignored. Their fears, however, were only too well founded, for some forty years later, the decline of traffic by the old route, caused by the building of the present Exeter Bridge, at once led to a depreciation in the value of property in the neighbourhood of St. Mary's Bridge, which is still strikingly apparent in the quaint but somewhat dilapidated character of the buildings.

The risk of robbery by the neighbouring nobles was general in the Middle Ages, as the Derby merchants knew to their cost on many occasions. The name Tenant Bridge (X) implies that the townspeople (tenants in-capite, certainly from 1256) built this bridge at their own charges and with their own labour, for the carriage of the produce of the Siddals, on the understanding that it was burgess property, and that neither king nor noble had any right to levy toll upon it.

These bridges and town thoroughfares were all narrow and inconvenient from a modern point of view. In

330APPENDIX. 

Moneypenny's Map of Derby (1791), the town end, or oldest portion of Babington Lane, Green Lane, and Friar Gate, are all shown with narrow entrances, and the less-used thoroughfares of to-day, such as upper Sadler Gate, St. Michael's Lane, and Thorn Tree Lane, remain as examples of this mediaeval narrowness. The Earl of Shrewsbury, in stating his plan for stopping the northern rebels in 1536, says that "the ways at Derby are so strait (narrow) that few will pass there". He doubtless knew also that St. Peter's Bridge was protected by a gateway, and that St Mary's Bridge was guarded in a similar manner, the stone groove and bolt-holes still to be seen in the old structure apparently marking the position of the portcullis.

Little can be said respecting the bridge over the Bramble Brook at the eastern end of the Wardwick (Y). The early wooden structure had given place to a stone bridge long before Hutton's boyhood, his description of it in those days corresponding with Pegg's Bridge (Z) still to be seen crossing the canal near the Nottingham Road.

The Bramble Brook some distance above the bridge, ran past the rear of the Friary (27), its inmates having chosen this position for their dwelling, because the brook enabled them to form a sluice through their property - a method of drainage common in the Middle Ages. The fishponds, which existed here until modern times, evidently formed the upper portion of this artificial channel through the grounds of the Friary.

The fords of the early ages were slowly improved by placing stepping-stones, which in turn gave place to wooden bridges, to be improved later, in the more important thoroughfares, by stone structures. The king's letter of 1328 grants the pontages for three years for the repair of the bridges of the town, and as St Mary's was rebuilt of stone about this time, it is possible that

 APPENDIX.331

St. Peter's and St. Werburgh's Bridges were also reconstructed at or about the same period. In Speed's map, St. Werburgh's, St. Peter's, and Tenant Bridges are shown as stone structures, each with three arches.

Improvements of an extensive nature, however, all belong to modern times; St. Mary's Bridge was finished in 1794, as the date cut on the first pier from the town side plainly shows. In 1787 Mayor Flint built Sadler Gate Bridge in place of the two mediaeval bridges at this spot a bold improvement constituting the first covering of the brook. In 1837 the arching of the brook between St. Peter's and St. James' Bridges formed a landmark in the history of the town, and in 1852 the last important change occurred, when Exeter Bridge (Ex), as already stated, replaced a wooden structure, built by Saxelby, which crossed the Derwent about this spot.
