Ferrydyke Bascule Bridge
This photo was taken from the cycle route that closely follows the Forth and Clyde Canal. The huts on the other side of the canal are in Portpatrick Road in Old Kilpatrick (compare Image).
The term 'bascule' comes from a French word meaning a see-saw. The two sides of a bascule bridge are raised independently by people who use long lever handles to turn the cogs. The heavy bridge decks are counterweighted with underground weights in order to make this process easier.
For a view across the bridge from the other side, see Image
