Ross Bridge

Used by so many people this is Ross Bridge in 1975; built in 1881 using a railway turntable which had been removed as redundant, at Chyandour.
Ross bridge was a swing bridge, using the same rotational bearings; it was replaced by a lighter swing bridge in 1981.

Now THAT was a bridge (well actually a re-used locomotive turntable from old Penzance station). Scillonian (II) on the outer arm, and it appears to be a Trinity House vessel entering the wet dock. Was the Fish Market still in use then; I am not sure but is that the training ship Winston Churchill s mast? She was here in that year, I have pictures uploaded.
