About MeThis is an important plan because it is the only existing drawing known for one of Harpers's bridges. The suspension bridge itself was erected for Colonel Sandeman over the railway at Ravenscraig, West Ferry, Dundee. It had a fifty feet span and was constructed in the space of five days. This must have been one of the earliest bridges by Harpers and Co.
