As you can see (if you have been following the story), the stream is now pretty much back where it should be though about a foot or so higher than I would like. The rest of the path needs infill but is now ready for an engineer to look at it.

The mighty Humber Bridge, I'm sure not the only photo of it here, not the only photo I have of it, this time I got lucky with the light

This could also go in forumite spotting, or I saw this and thought of you...

Newton Cap Viaduct, the former railway viaduct between Bishop Auckland and Durham:

It has since been converted to carry the A689 out of Bishop. And to think the council wanted to knock it down to build a whole new structure; only a local campaign saved it.

The old (14th century) bridge was clearly not up to A-road traffic, though it is a very fine bridge in itself:

It was built by Bishop Skirlaw, then Bishop of Durham, though it's been extensively renovated since then. I still prefer crossing at the old bridge, for the extra hills, the thrill of visiting Toronto, and, of course, for the views of the viaduct:

Disused rail bridge across the Sabi River, Kruger National Park, South Africa.

Not far from this bridge were Hippopotomi and Crocodiles.

Ah....

*plugs in headphones, turns up something pleasant to drown out non-shared musical preferences of colleagues and goes to spend a moment in her happy place between 3 zillion slightly tricky phone calls*

Them's good bridges, them is.
