King George VI Bridge

2021-05-05

The King George VI Bridge is a scaffold over the River Dee in Aberdeen, Scotland. Head towards the George VI Bridge on Riverside Drive. A pleasant part worth visiting in the core of the city! During the time of the Industrial Revolution, the Bridge was augmented from four to eight meters under the designs of Aberdonian-conceived John Smith, who also designed the presently lost St Nicholas Street that associated Union Street and George Street. The Class A listed scaffold is set at what was at one time Aberdeen's limit and the site of a savage fight among Royalists and Covenanters in 1639, with extensive nearby history given by The Doric Columns. Associating the neighborhoods of Ferryhill to Craiglug in Torry, the steel suspension connect is also crafted by draftsman John Smith. Further along the stream lie both the King George VI and Wellington Suspension bridges, with the King George VI structure connecting Great Southern Road to the Kincorth indirect.
