Description
Pulteney Bridge spans the River Avon in Bath, England. It was designed by Robert Adams and completed in 1773. It is only one of four bridges in the world with shops across the full span on both sides. This view is from the south side.
This picture was taken in August 1991 and later scanned.

great POV and photo!!! wonderful place!!!!
The bridge is really interest as is the tiered thing in the foreground. I have not seen anything quite like that before.
Lovely capture, certainly is a nice looking bridge guess they wouldn't have a supermarket in there as one of the shops... love the tier thing in the front with the people wading in the water, cant be to deep..
great one siggy,like these shops.
Very interesting capture. Thank you for sharing it.
wow fantastic POV
What a fascinating image! The bridge and buildings are great, and the steps that are built into the river bed, however they did that, are amazing! Great composition and an engaging shot!
amazing how they also shaped the river and the idea of shops around the bridge is super of course esp.. as it is still standing after more than 200 years

fantastic shot! :)
Excellent capture.
The 'steps' is a weir. Weirs or overflow dams are used to raise the level of water in a river and control the velocity of the flow. Weirs are also used to create mill ponds!
On the River Avon, small excursion boats are used (the tip of one can be seen on the right side) for sightseeing purposes. Without the weir these boats could not operate on the river.
Such a familiar view! I lived here for a very short while in 1963.
beautiful shot man! :)
Another place to put on my visit list. I'll bet it looks identical to this today...what's 18 years to such a historic setting?
