EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alan Bradley LRPS showcases the enchanting Ketton Packhorse Bridge, a remarkable piece of history nestled in the picturesque County Durham countryside. The bridge, dating back to the late 17th or early 18th century, stands as a testament to the region's rich heritage and transport history. With its low and narrow hump-backed design, this listed and scheduled ancient monument exudes an undeniable charm. The stone arches gracefully span over a tranquil road that winds through lush greenery. It is easy to imagine pack horses once traversing this very spot, carrying goods across these sturdy keystones. The surrounding scenery adds to the allure of this scene; towering trees frame the bridge, casting dappled shadows on its weathered stones. This idyllic rural setting invites visitors to step back in time and appreciate both nature's beauty and human ingenuity. Alan Bradley's expertly captured image allows us to marvel at this architectural gem while immersing ourselves in its serene surroundings. Through his lens, he has frozen a moment that encapsulates centuries of history within one frame. Whether you are an admirer of historical landmarks or simply drawn to scenic landscapes, this print serves as a timeless reminder of our connection with the past and our appreciation for natural beauty intertwined with man-made wonders.
