Forth Bridge

The Forth Bridge framed by the remains of an old loading dock at Prestonhill Quarry, between Inverkeithing and Dalgety Bay on the Fife Coastal Path.

 

The Forth Bridge[1] is a cantilever railway bridge over across the Firth of Forth in the east of Scotland, 9 miles (14 kilometres) west of Edinburgh City Centre. It is considered an iconic structure and a symbol of Scotland (having been voted Scotland's greatest man-made wonder in 2016), and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was designed by the English engineers Sir John Fowler and Sir Benjamin Baker. It is sometimes referred to as the Forth Rail Bridge to distinguish it from the Forth Road Bridge, though this has never been its official name.
