Arches, HBM

Benches and Gulls with the old bridge at Berwick on Tweed as a backdrop,
This 15 span grade one listed structure was built between 1611 and 1624, it is 1,164ft (355 m) long, it is also a scheduled monument and built of red sandstone.

I prefer the image large,

HBM and a good week.

Thank you, Isabel, Berwick is a walled town (Elizabethan period) and the table-top appears to be a map of the area contained within those walls.

A fine shot here my friend. Love this bridge and your capture of it is far better than mine was when I was here. A bench too -must have material! Well done.

trester88 ^club

Bei uns in Deutschland gibt es Stahl- und Betonbrücken, die nach 50 Jahren nicht mehr reparabel sind und abgerissen werden. Um so erstaunlicher ist diese Brücke, die mehr als 400 Jahre gehalten hat. Und ein schöner Anblick ist sie auch.
HBM und einen guten Start in die Woche, Roger!

Keith Burton ^club

Well, for a bridge built in the early 17th century, it's looking remarkably good - especially in that lovely sunshine. Viewed large the detail is excellent and there's a nice contrast with the newer buildings visible over the bridge.

Gorgeous light and an interesting foreground (I especially like the gulls). An excellent shot Roger!

Roger (Grisly) ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

Wonderful comments Keith, thank you,
Considering it's close to the mouth of the Tweed and still in use, including traffic, it's longevity is remarkable.

MaggsMep ^club

Superb image of this ancient bridge (please tell me there's a weight limit on it), I love the honour guard of gulls, tho' their formation could do with a bit of tidying! The light is perfect and those colourful roofs complement the bridge very well. All in all a superb image, sir ;)

Oh yes, knew I'd forgotten something - the benches aren't bad either!!!
Have a good week Roger!

21 months ago.

Roger (Grisly) ^club has replied to MaggsMep ^club

Many thanks Maggs, following on from major works to safeguard it's future I would suspect the bridge has a weight limit, it is now only for local traffic and cyclists,
I have a fondness for Berwick and its tortured history.
