Looking roughly northwards from the Ferris Wheel across Stratford-upon-Avon. The bridge at bottom right is the (now) pedestrian "Tramway Bridge", the building at the far end of it being Cox's Yard. A number of narrow boats can be seen moored in the canal basin beyond it on the left.

The Tramway Bridge
The Tramway Bridge crosses the River Avon in Stratford-upon-Avon. It was built in 1826 to a design by J.U. Rastrick to carry the Stratford and Moreton Tramway over the river on nine red brick arches. The Tramway was a 24km long horse tramway built to link the Black Country with rural Warwickshire via the Stratford and Avon Canal. This Grade II listed structure now serves as a footbridge.
