Eye-catching historic bridge
Warkworth Bridge的点评
点评：The current road bridge was only opened in 1965 and prior to this the medieval Warkworth Bridge would have carried all the traffic over the River Coquet to and from the town. It is a wonder it survived and it is apparently one of only a few such structures left standing in England.
We had seen it as we entered town and following a visit to Warkworth Castle, at the opposite end of the main street, we walked back to it taking in the attractions of the town as we strolled. It’s a quaint looking village and the bridge does not look out of place. There is a pleasant river walkway with benches and picnic tables, and the nearby historic St Lawrence Church, dating back centuries is also open to visitors.
Nowadays the bridge is accessible to pedestrians only and it’s worth crossing over for a look and to walk through the gatehouse, imagining as you do, that you’re heading to the Castle back in the 14th century to visit the owners. As Scots, we would have been unlikely to get a warm welcome at that time in contrast to present day.

翻译：目前的公路桥于 1965 年才开通，在此之前，中世纪的沃克沃斯桥承载着所有跨过科克特河往返于城镇的交通。这座桥能幸存下来真是个奇迹，它显然是英格兰仅存的几座此类建筑之一。
我们进城时就看到了这座桥，在参观了主街另一端的沃克沃斯城堡后，我们走回桥上，一边漫步一边欣赏小镇的景点。这是一个古色古香的村庄，这座桥看起来并不突兀。这里有一条宜人的河边步道，有长椅和野餐桌，附近历史悠久的圣劳伦斯教堂也有数百年的历史，也对游客开放。
如今，这座桥只供行人通行，值得过桥一看，穿过门楼，想象着你正前往 14 世纪的城堡拜访主人。与现在相比，作为苏格兰人，我们当时不太可能受到热烈欢迎。
