Photograph depicts the former bridge that crossed the Nanaimo River. Davies had taken a photograph of the bridge in June 1965, when it was in use. The bridge was superceded by a newer one a year prior the photograph was taken. On June 13, 1972, it was standing, but on this day the Highways Department took it down.
