Britannia Bridge

About to cross the Britannia Bridge over the Menai Strait westbound on 29 May 2013. Originally a tubular bridge designed by Robert Stephenson, it was rebuilt after a major fire in 1970. A later addition was a road deck for the A55 trunk road. At each end of the bridge is a pair of limestone lions couchant, an example of which can be seen on the right.
