England. Through the first part of the 20th century, Hertford
thrived as a lumber town, making good use of the nearby river. The original
bridge that spanned the river was a floating bridge, made of steel and wood.
When a boat came near and wanted passage, the bridge would be unhooked from one
bank and allowed to float out of the way. Then, when the boat had passed, lines
were used to haul the free end of the bridge in and reconnect it. Today, an
S-shaped swing bridge is in use, the only one of its kind in the
world. Hertford is the hometown of baseball pitcher
