Royal Border Bridge

Part of the Royal Border Bridge spanning the Tweed between Berwick on Tweed and Tweedmouth. Built between 1847 and 1850 and designed by Robert Stephenson, the bridge is 659 metres long and boasts 28 arches. It is part of the East Coast Main Line, which was electrified in 1989.

What a lovely bridge! The texture of the bricks is very nice! Thank you for the info, it was very interesting...I gather it's very long if it's got 28 arches! :)

HFF!

That's a beautiful bridge, Carol. I like all those arches.

Oh gosh, I had this album and played it so much. Such a fun song and great one to go along with your beautiful image.

HFF to you and a brilliant weekend too. :)
