Pont Y Ddraig, Rhyl. Not done justice by my photography skills, dead impressed with it, really must learn to take a decent pic.

Lune Viaduct:



And a much better photo of Tees Bridge where the East Coast Mainline crosses the river at Croft:



The map shows there's a footpath down at the other side, I'll have a look down there one time.

I think I went over that on the (rather fabulous) Manc-Blackpool ride.  It was in the dark tho, so I can't be sure :)

Yes you did, crossings of the Ribble are few and far between, seems only yesterday I collected a very tired Em-gem and chuffed jogler in Blackpool.  :D

Is this going to work?

Damn, no it didn't, I can't work out how to get proper direct links to include the picture, from Google photos.... (I used to manage OK from Picasa )

Anyway, it was Congo Bridge, Freetown, Sierra Leone. Was a railway bridge on the mountain railway, which was for getting the poor pale European colonial types away from the festering disease ridden sore that was downtown Freetown, and into the white man's colony up the hill in the fresh air.  When that closed, it became a footbridge, which it still is now, so I cannot leave such a thing uncrossed.

In google photos, right-click on the image, Copy Image Location; in your post here, paste that copied (and now ridiculously long) location between the img tags.  There may well be an easier way though.
