Notes:
- 1866: A flood causes a major change in the course of the Allier River such that the main channel no longer flows under the bridge. The bridge, however, is not destroyed. A new suspension bridge is built in the 1880s over the main channel of the Allier just slightly east of the older bridge.
- All three pairs of pylons were still standing in the 2010s.
- Similar to 1833 Cosne-sur-Loire - Cosne-sur-Loire, Nièvre and Boulleret, Cher, France in appearance of towers.

Notes:
- Structurae equates this bridge (which was replaced in 2012-2013) to the famous Seguin Brothers test structure at Annonay. Other sources suggest the derelict bridge replaced in 2012-2013 only dated to the 1860s. The detailed description and depiction of the Seguin's Annonay bridge in Tom F. Peters book on early 19th-century suspension bridges definitely does not resemble the 19th-century Moulin bridge. Peters describes the 1822-1823 Seguin bridge as a very narrow, very light, catwalk-style bridge. Peters additionally describes the main cables: "It had a single continuous parallel wire cable made of eight 1.23mm (no. 8 gauge) wires."
- Replaced by 2013 Moulin - Vernosc-lès-Annonay, Ardèche, France.

Notes:
- This record represents the bridge as rebuilt with the midspan pier in the 1880s.
- Ann Saul sent a synopsis of this bridge's history from La Roche-Guyon, Bourg Feodal de l'Ancien Vexin Francais by Ernest Colas. "The author states that the bridge was built in 1838, originally with two pylons, one on each bank of the Seine. In 1882, gale force winds turned over a wide stretch of the bridge floor. Afterwards, another pylon was placed in the middle of the river; however, the bridge was not considered stable enough for modern transportation (the automobile, perhaps). Plans were made for a new bridge and the old one was demolished. The new bridge was never built because of World War I."
- Replaced 1838 La Roche-Guyon - La Roche-Guyon, Val-d'Oise and Yvelines, France.

An abandoned pier for another bridge is visible in some images of the bridge. It is possible there was another, earlier, bridge at this location for which the early 1820s completion date may be applicable. Other sources suggest the suspension bridge represented here was completed in 1893.

Notes:
- This is a replacement for the three-span southern Saint-Symphorien bridge. It's unclear if this wood-towered bridge is a result of the 1943 reconstruction following the 1940 French army destruction of the bridge or the reconstruction following the 1944 German army destruction of the bridge.
- Replaced 1847 Saint-Symphorien - Tours, Indre-et-Loire, France.
- Connects to 1847 Saint-Symphorien - Tours, Indre-et-Loire, France. It's unclear whether the northern two-span Saint-Symphorien bridge was similarly reconstructed in the 1940s.
- Replaced by 1963 Saint-Symphorien - Tours, Indre-et-Loire, France.

Notes:
- Coordinates are for one of the remaining piers of the rail tracks that sat on top of the suspension bridge. This highly unusual hybrid structure had a rail bridge supported by the suspension bridge towers and a suspension bridge mid-span tower. From a distance, it had the appearance of a deck suspended from a rail bridge, but this was not the case.
- See 1854 Sarp (Sarpsbro, Sarpsbrua) - Sarpsborg, Viken, Norway. Another interesting hybrid rail and suspension bridge.
