Blackfriars Railway Bridge

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackfriars_Railway_Bridge So why have the supports of the old bridge been left behind? The bridge was of cast-iron construction and would have had scrap value. The masonry supports had no value and, presumably, there was no funding at the time to remove them for aesthetic reasons. However, I like ruins like this and hope they will stay as they are. |
