Fiddlesticks Posted March 2 Posted March 2 WEIRD AND WONDERFUL... Due to my unique numbering system, I have these down as: Weird and Wonderful #11 - Welsh Wooden Toll Bridges Although there are two separate bridges here, I would not be so greedy (or unimaginative) as to try to claim points on both. Part of the weirdness is in finding two wooden toll bridges just a few miles apart. The wonderful thing is that motorcycles can be ridden across the Barmouth Bridge (albeit with some disapproving stares). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barmouth_Bridge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penmaenpool 8 Quote
