Bristol, England BS1 6UQ

The Gaol Ferry Bridge, built in the 1930s, spans the River Avon and serves as a replacement for the old ferry service. This ornate iron bridge is a notable sight, particularly for those passing by the area. Its design and structure make it a recognized landmark in Bristol.

The bridge derives its name from its proximity to the former Bristol Gaol, which has since been demolished. It stands as a reminder of the historical significance of the location and offers a connection between the past and the present. Visitors can appreciate the bridge's architectural features while reflecting on the area's history.
