Great Britain: Town Path Bridge in Salisbury (2)

One last photo of Salisbury and then we'll move on. This is another view of the three-span Town Path Bridge across the River Nadder. The bridge has a long embankment on the west (far) side that juts into the river (retained by masonry wingwalls) and then rises over the river into Salisbury.

The Nadder begins as springs and streams in south Wiltshire and flows northeast until it meets the River Avon in Salisbury.  The 32 km river is popular for its clear water, abundance of trout, and the unspoiled meadows along it's banks.
