Worcester, The River Severn From The Cathedral Tower c.1960

More about this scene
We are looking upstream, towards the Abberley Hills in the distance, with the tower and spire of the otherwise demolished St Andrew's Church prominent on the right. In the foreground is the Old Palace which was, until 1842, one of the Bishop's residences. The railway bridge in the middle distance was built in 1860 (though the girder section dates only from 1904), part of a notable 1½-mile viaduct and embankment taking the Worcester-Hereford line across the city from Henwick to Shrub Hill. It has 68 arches, including the first brick arch to be built on the skew.
