The photo was taken from the north side of the Humber estuary. The bridge can be seen here in full effect, it is an amazing piece of engineering at 1410mtrs long it used to be the longest suspension bridge in the world. It took 8 years to build

Small, very beautiful nature reserve, formerly a clay/lime pit. Amazingly diverse bird life - lots of young birds in June.
