There are nine bridges across the River Ouse within the city of York, England, and sixteen smaller bridges across the narrower River Foss. ==Bridges over the Ouse== The earliest bridge, built by the Romans, linked Stonegate (the ''via praetoria'' of the Roman fortress) and Micklegate, and crossed the river approximately where the Guildhall now is. Its replacement, Ouse Bridge, was a wooden bridge built about 350 metres downstream by the Vikings. It has been rebuilt three times, most recently between 1810 and 1820. The Scarborough Railway Bridge of 1845 was the second bridge to be built, and it was followed by two more road bridges, Lendal Bridge in 1863 and Skeldergate Bridge in 1882. The Millennium Bridge, a footbridge, was added in 2001. There are also Clifton Bridge in the northern suburbs of the city, two modern fly-overs carrying the outer ring road, and the former railway bridge at Naburn, which is now part of the York-Selby cycle path. North to south, the bridges are: * The A1237 road (York Outer Ring Road Western and Northern) * Clifton Bridge (1963) * Scarborough Railway Bridge (1844) * Lendal Bridge (1863) * Ouse Bridge (1821) * Skeldergate Bridge (1881) * Millennium Bridge (2001) * The A64 Outer Ring Road Southern and Eastern (1976) * Naburn railway bridge (now a cycle and pedestrian path) 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「Bridges of York」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
