    Michael McCasland

    Outstanding in every way! A favorite! Where is this?

  • roybarry replied

    Thanks Michael. This is the Menai suspension bridge connecting the Welsh mainland with the island of Anglesey. in my opinion, it is one of the engineering marvels of the world and is still as strikingly beautiful today as it was when it was 1st constructed, in 1826.

  • roybarry replied

    Thanks Max- theses Victorians knew their stuff and would put many of todays designers and builders to shame.

  • Richard Veal

    Its a bit similar to Clifton. Another Victorian masterpiece.

  • roybarry replied

    Indeed, although Clifton was designed by the daddy of all victorian engineers- IKB was the #1, no question.

    I always thought this was designed by that Isambard bloke, the one who gave his Kingdom to Brunnel but it wasn’t was it it was that other bloke who did the viaducts.

    Would that be Thingy Telford you were on about, or Thomas whossisname?
