One Step at a Time

Bridge to Babylon ?

Well, no, it's the Bridge to Gas Street Basin in Birmingham but Mick Jagger was 70 today and the photo title is the only nod to bridges that I could find in the Rolling Stones discography. In actual fact I spotted this gem a few weeks back and it's been on the todo list ever since and I figured for some reason that today was the day. I guess technically it's an aqueduct but either way I think it's a thing of beauty with some fantastic detailing. It was built by A. Handyside & Co. Ltd in 1884 and according to the Andrew Handyside World Map (yes, honestly, there is one) is the only example in Birmingham.
