 Heritage tours
« Thread Started on Oct 25, 2008, 1:54pm »

My family thoroughly enjoyed the last heritage tour where they were taken inside the bridge whilst it swung, underneath the bridge to see the workings.
They saw the accurate meccano model which was made of the bridge and also went across to the green tower on the traffic roundabout which is what powered the swinging of the bridge before it was modernised. It also used to power the turntable from the old railway station.
They had a brill time and I really recommend it.
Look out for signs near the bridge when they plan the next one!

Adopt some ex battery hens. It'll be one of the best things you ever do. Please see the links on RoSAH Rescue's blog http://www.devoted.to/rosah
