::The Severn Bridge, Bristol ::

We stayed at the Travelodge Hotel nearby, here are some of the photos before we checked out.








Information on the bridge can be found here.
From wikipedia, "The Severn Bridge (Welsh: Pont Hafren) is a suspension bridge spanning the River Severn between South Gloucestershire, just north of Bristol, England, and Monmouthshire in South Wales, via Beachley, a peninsula between the Severn and Wye estuaries. It is the original Severn road crossing between England and Wales and took five years to construct at a cost of £8 million.[1] It replaced the Aust ferry. The bridge was opened on 8 September 1966 by Queen Elizabeth II, who hailed it as the dawn of a new economic era for South Wales. The bridge was granted Grade I listed status in 1998."
