Wordless Wednesday


Close to home for a change! Brunel's Royal Albert rail Bridge with the Tamar road bridge behind. 

"Brunel's Royal Albert Bridge over the Tamar from Plymouth to Saltash. Opened in 1859 it was another 100 years before it acquired a neighbour (the Tamar road bridge).

The bridge was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel and is 170 feet high and over 2,000 feet in length."


I am joining Sandee at Comedy Plus for the blog hop.

    I've told you, I love bridges. These architectural creations are so impressive.
    My whole admiration for those who built it.
    Happy WW, Jackie and a fine week!

    Reminds me of the bridge in Benicia, CA. If I didn't know different it could be the same bridge. Beautiful.

    Jackie, we hope you and Ivor are okay and staying well through the unprecedented heat in the UK and Europe. We don't imagine most people would have central air conditioning, but we hope you do have some cooling device(s).

    Take care,
    Derry and the biped

    Amazing engineering and from this distance, seem as one. Bridges are certainly one of mankinds greatest legacies.
