There were 2 towers, and cables would be hanging from the towers. Hangers(or stringers) would be hanging from the cables. The hangers and the towers combined would hold up the deck which at the side, gets connected to the anchor. On top of the anchor is the anchorage, which holds up the cables from the sides.
That is a simple description of a suspension bridge.
