• Using this crossing to travel between Wales and England must be an absolute delight.""Does it always look this good?
• This magnificent motorway suspension bridge spans the River Severn and the River Wye.""It was opened by the Queen on this day, 1966
• “Two lands at last connected \/ Across the waters wide \/ And all the tolls collected \/ On the English side.”""Which poet penned these sarcastic words?
• You are looking at the first road bridge to span these waters.""How did locals make a journey across in the years before?
