Article is wrong

[edit]

The article mentions that the bridge in 1846 was called lennox bridge and then later renamed to Princes bridge, when in fact the newspaper article from 1846 states otherwise eg: "PORT PHILLIP.:LAYING THE FOUNDATION STONES OF THE NEW BRIDGE AND HOSPITAL, AT MELBOURNE". The Sydney Morning Herald. Vol. XXI, , no. 2773. New South Wales, Australia. 1 April 1846. p. 3. Retrieved 22 April 2017 – via National Library of Australia.{{cite news}}: CS1 maint: extra punctuation (link), ...he wished that it might be distinguished by the name of "Prince's Bridge," in honour of the Prince of Wales, whom he hoped would yet be the Sovereign of their colonies...
