Maidenhead, The River Thames And Bridge 1906

More about this scene
Half a mile downstream the river passes through Sir Robert Taylor's supremely graceful and beautiful sandstone bridge of the 1770s that still carries the busy A4 London to Bath road. For once, the balustraded parapets have not been interfered with by over-zealous highway engineers, as at Staines. The buildings on the right have been replaced by 1990s blocks of flats.
