Abstract

The article is the outcome of the author's long-standing interest in the number and variety of bridges that were built within a short section of the Great Kei River at Victoria Drift - in close proximity to the village of Komgha - over a 100-year period. The particular bridges under scrutiny - with their dates of construction - are as follows:
 
 Temporary Military Bridge, 1877 (no longer extant)
 Lattice Girder Wagon Bridge, 1879
 Timber Railway Bridge, 1905 (only foundations remaining)
 Relocated Lattice Girder Railway Bridge, 1948
 N2 SANRAL Concrete Bridge, 1977.
