Bridge over untroubled water


Being right on the inner ring road (Foss Islands Road)  this spot is not quite as tranquil as it looks. The pretty  iron bridge over the River Foss is permanently closed to pedestrians but its graceful arch and colour make it a treat to the eyes. Let's hope no-one decides to sell it for scrap.

  1. Interesting. I would have thought this was a quiet rural setting. Striking arch bridge.

  2. It is a lovely bridge! Why is it closed? I agree, even if it's not being used, it adds so much as a little piece of art.
