Mathematical Bridge


The Mathematical Bridge, designed by William Etheridge, and built by James Essex in 1749, is the popular name of a wooden footbridge that connects two parts of Queens' College in Cambridge University in London. Its official name is simply the Wooden Bridge.

A popular fable is that the bridge was designed and built by Sir Isaac Newton without the use of nuts or bolts.
