Let's Build It Here

Folk saw things differently during the Industrial Revolution. We see a slight dip with a little puddle at the bottom; they saw a raging torrent at the foot of a precipitous gorge and built accordingly.

Nice piece of bridge building, sugar! What's the history behind that area? Where is it? xoxoxoo

Savannah, I have no idea where this is. It's from Phil and Dawn's latest jaunt so it's either out west or up north.

A bridge over the river Dry?

Ms M said...

Quite a magnificent bridge. Is the land (beneath the bridge) marsh or wetlands? And lovely shadows on the hills.
Good one, Speedway ;)

We will have to ask Phil and Dawn that one, but the photos are really good, so should be a lot more. although not like Dive not to know all about it, the walking encyclopaedia…whoops have i spelt that right?

Hahahahahaha!
Excellent, Speedway.

It's a lovely place, Ms.M. but I have no idea where it is.

Almost, Mum. use your æ (alt and apostrophe keys) to get the ligature rather than using separate letters.

Yup. Ducts are a good way to look Roman.
