Robert Adam's bridge, 1769-74, is a bit of a throwback to medieval bridges such as London Bridge in its incorporation of buildings. It's been hacked about a fair bit since Adam's day, but he would probably recognise this view. Grade I listed. Street view: Image The weir, a flood-control measure, dates from 1968-72, by Casson & Conder (Image]).
