KIRKSTALL BRIDGE YORKSHIRE 1913 N53o 48' 57.9" W1o 36' 25.7"
This late flowering Victorian two span bridge carries the road bridge across the River Aire and the railroad tracks near Kirkstall Abbey in the Leeds vicinity. It has a stepped parapet railing and the verticle piercing of the cast iron balastrade of the balastrade is repeated in the vertical piercing of the cast ironspandrels which act as skirts to disguise that it is a girder bridge. I has a Victorian boldness and only the heavy handed stone pillars give away that it is Edwardian.
