SE6051 : Skeldergate Bridge
York, Yorkshire, Great Britain
Skeldergate Bridge
It was built as a toll bridge between 1878 and 1880.
A small arch by the former tollhouse at the east end of the bridge was originally designed to open so that tall ships could sail up to the quays on either side of the river between Skeldergate and Ouse Bridges. Skeldergate Bridge was formally declared free of tolls on April 1, 1914.
