More about this scene
The River Lune and the town of Lancaster are viewed from the New Bridge, or the Skerton Bridge as it is now called. The bridge in our photograph is the Greyhound Road Bridge; it replaced the very first bridge, the medieval Old Bridge, which led directly to Bridge Hill and China Lane, which was only 8ft wide. This is the spot where the Romans built their ford to cross the River Lune; today the new Millennium Footbridge has been built here.
