HFF ~ Reeth Swing Bridge

HFF ~ Reeth Swing Bridge
Our walk around this very pleasant Swaledale village led us over this suspension bridge over the River Swale. It still has this old name after the original 1920’s bridge was destroyed by a flood in 2000. It was said that children could get it to swing from side to side by pulling the supporting wires and throwing their weight around. I think this one is somewhat more solid.
See PiP for full side view.

Have a good weekend.

This bridge is somewhat hidden and as far as I know not so much advertised. We came to it almost at the end of our circular walk here.

Belated HFF, enjoy the rest of the weekend. Herb

Sorry for the misunderstanding Christa. It was the old one that swung! This is quite solid and does not swing but it shook a little as people went across. A new side view PiP is now here too.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb

Hi Herb
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition
I think there is a lot of mileage in the story of the swinging bridge. From what I can see of the design there is likely to be only one frequency of resonance, so once they find it, they are away!!
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Aye, I too can see in my mind's eye, a few kids swinging the old bridge and screaming with glee and excitement just like a fairground ride.
