Southern end of Queen Alexandra Bridge
The Queen Alexandra Bridge over the River Wear was built in 1909 and was originally a double-decker bridge with a railway on the top (long since discontinued and dismantled). The bridge is a Grade II listed structure and its lattice girder construction is the heaviest ever built. Cycle- and foot-ways span the river on the outside of the girders.

Old shipbuilding shed by the Queen Alexandra Bridge
Silting at the entrance to the lock suggests that whatever the sheds are used for now, it is not shipbuilding.
