When I first arrived in Umeå in September 2011, this is the first proper landmark that I saw, and what a bridge this is - I never got tired of taking its photographs throughout my two-year-stay in the city. I took this photo in April when the Ume River was just beginning to melt after the annual winter freeze.

Saffron Square, tallest building in Croydon.

The ornate gate right across the bridge is not in use but the entry to the Necropolis in Glasgow via this bridge, apparently called the ‘‘Bridge of Sighs’’, is nevertheless dramatic. Most of the larger tombs are on the top of the hill, making it really look like a settlement on the top, a city for the dead who could pay for a luxurious afterlife. Its a fascinating place to visit if you are visiting Glasgow.
