Whitby Swing Bridge in action

After reading Rosalyn Hilborne's comment on the previous page I tried to take a look on line to see the bridge opened and was surprised of how few there were and also what poor quality ones there was of them. So I took a look in my archives and found this from 2014, when we were last there. Hope you enjoy it.

As always, deserves full size.

Yes Maurice, it can be opened for quite some time if my memory serves me correctly. You remind me of us nearly missing a continental ferry waiting for a lifting bridge to close.

Another great image of the bridge, Herb. We have had many lifting bridges here (though disappearing), but I really don't think I've previously seen a swing bridge such as this.
