This is the entrance into Chelsea Harbour through Image from the River Thames. The bridge is, I think, a bascule bridge, like Tower Bridge, in that it is one where the bridge deck pivots about a horizontal axis with a counterweight on the other side. Note the traffic lights controlling boat movements into and out of the lock!
