2nd - "A Bridge Too Far"

Beachley, Glos. view map

1977 film with Sean Connery, Michael Caine & Ryan O'Neal

The afternoon sun catches the elegant structure of the original Severn Bridge. Although we're still in Gloucestershire, we're on the west bank of the river (the Welsh side) looking east across the Severn to England - about half-a-mile behind us is the River Wye and the border to the Principality
