 This is the Iron Bridge at Ironbridge Gorge over the river Severn in Shropshiore, England.
A World Heritage Site of significance for its unique role in the development of the Industrial Revolution which originated in Britain in the 18th Century and later spread across the world.
The bridge itself was built by Abraham Darby III and architect Thomas Pritchard and it became so famous that now the town proudly boasts the name ‘Ironbridge’.

Tad overexposed. I would sacrefice the details under the bridge to get better saturation in the greenish parts.7

The sky and buildings in the background are just a touch washed out, though the bridge is lovely.
