The Royal Albert Bridge (Viaduct) at Saltash. The Bridge carrying the railway over
The Royal Albert Bridge (Viaduct) at Saltash. The Bridge carrying the railway over the estuary of the Tamar at Saltash and linking Devon and Cornwall, England. Inaugurated by Prince Albert in May 1859, this was Isambard Kingdom Brunels last masterpiece. His use of prefabricated wrought iron tubes in this bow-string girder bridge was on a much larger scale than his innovative bridge at Chepstow. Engraving

This print showcases the magnificent Royal Albert Bridge (Viaduct) at Saltash, a remarkable feat of engineering that connects Devon and Cornwall in England. Inaugurated by Prince Albert himself in May 1859, this bridge stands as Isambard Kingdom Brunel's final masterpiece. The genius architect employed his innovative techniques on a grander scale than ever before, utilizing prefabricated wrought iron tubes to construct this bow-string girder bridge. The engraving captures the sheer elegance and strength of the structure as it gracefully carries the railway over the estuary of the Tamar at Saltash. This iconic landmark symbolizes both progress and unity between two counties, serving as a testament to human ingenuity and civil engineering prowess.
