Where is bam bridge depot




















Each phase sees the team carry out grit blasting and repainting, as well as structural steel repairs, over six weeks. Once that time is up, the encapsulation should, in theory, roll on. However, securing railway possessions has proved problematic, as each move of the encapsulation requires a possession of the lines underneath to avoid any potential issues with the OLEs. We craned in the roof, then managed to build the sides and the soffit from access underneath.

But moving from phase one to phase two, Bam needed to knock out power to the OLEs and isolate them — and as phase two is the closest point the bridge comes to any OLE, it proved especially difficult.

Instead, once a week there is a four-hour period where all of the lines underneath are knocked out, allowing the team one hour of working time by the time the line is handed over.

After a three-month delay, Network Rail granted permission for the line to the west of the bridge, leading into and including a depot, to be knocked out in one night, allowing Bam to move over the tricky OLE. Phase two was approaching its conclusion, but Bam needed to negotiate a new possession to move into phase three, as the original delay meant the team was out of sync with its original planned possession windows.

This was subsequently achieved in the following weeks, allowing work on phase three to get under way. Most of the other work has been overplating and replacing bits of rotten steel.

Prisoners had to pay for food and lodging. There were fees for turning keys or for taking irons off, and Fleet Prison had the highest fees in England. The head of the prison was termed the warden, who was appointed by Letters patent. It became a frequent practice of the holder of the patent to farm out the prison to the highest bidder.

One purchaser of the office, Thomas Bambridge, who became warden in , was of particularly evil repute. He arbitrarily and unlawfully loaded the prison with irons, put into dungeons, and destroyed prisoners for debt, treating them in the most barbarous and cruel manner, in high violation and contempt of the laws.
