Tyne Bridge

This iconic bridge, towering 55 meters above the River Tyne, is one of England's most recognisable river crossings. Built between 1925 and 1928, it was the country's largest single-span bridge, a testament to the shipbuilders' craftsmanship. It used over three-quarters of a million rivets to hold together seven thousand tons of steel, with the remarkable feat of uninterrupted river traffic during construction. This view highlights the enduring balance of form and function, virtually unchanged for a century.
