Ferrybridge is a village in West Yorkshire, England at a historically important crossing of the River Aire which borders the North Yorkshire village of Brotherton. It is linked to other communities by the A1, which follows the route of the Great North Road. ==Geography and geology== Geologically, Ferrybridge and Knottingley are located on rich soil, over a bed of magnesian limestone. The area is close to junctions of the M62 and A1(M) motorways; as well as junctions on the rail network, including northward to York, south to Pontefract (and Rotherham), west to both Wakefield and Leeds, east to Goole and south-east to the ECML; the River Aire meets the Aire and Calder navigation close to the east of the town. The area is famous for the power station and the M62 services which offers a Burger King, an M&S Simply Food, a Cotton Traders, a WH Smiths, a Greggs, and a Travelodge. Ferrybridge Power Station to the north dominates the skyline around the village. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ferrybridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
