This would bridge over the Cowgate and Merchant Street. Measuring in length, the bridge was constructed between 1827 and 1836 as part of the Edinburgh Improvement Act of 1827. Named after King George IV, it was designed by architect Thomas Hamilton (1784–1858) to connect the South Side district of Edinburgh to the Old Town (Royal Mile) and then use exiting streets on the north to connect to the New Town. Two of Edinburgh Old Town's traditional street ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
