The inside story
Boasting six UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Forth Bridge – affectionately nicknamed ‘Our Grand Old Lady’ – is one that Scotland proudly holds under its belt. Built by Benjamin Baker and John Fowler, the bridge towers over the Firth of Forth estuary and connects the villages of South Queensferry and North Queensferry. At the time of construction in 1890 it was actually the world’s longest bridge and while it no longer holds this status – it’s one of Scotland’s greatest man-made wonders and marvel of Victorian engineering.
Rumour has its industrial appearance didn’t go down well at the time, but the bridge has become a symbol of the nation, and definitely stands out among its peers. You’ll get some great photos of the bridge from the villages, boat tours and walking trails around the area – don’t miss out on the famous Hawkes Inn where the workers stopped after shifts. There are two other bridges that’ll catch your attention, Forth Road Bridge and Queensferry Crossing Bridge.
