Quite amazing actually to realise that we had this view from our house in Stirling!

Forth Rail Bridge
🇬🇧 As calm as the Forth was, it wouldn't have taken 3 seconds of exposure for calm water.

🇩🇪 So ruhig wie der Forth war, hätte es eigentlich keine 3 Sekunden Belichtung für ruhiges Wasser gebraucht.

Great to be back in the City of #Stirling! Fresh air and gorgeous light! #wallacemonument #riverforth

A triumph of over-engineering, the Forth Bridge, often called the Forth Rail Bridge since the arrival of the Forth Road Bridge: now one of three great bridges across this part of the Firth of Forth, each built in a different century.

The Forth Bridge. The image shows the Forth Bridge seen from the south-west with evening sun illuminating its whole length. There are five stone supports at the near end, leading in from the right of the frame, and these are lit by the sun to a bright honey colour. The metal structure of the bridge is in the lower left of the frame and is bright reddish-orange. The sky is blue, and this is reflected in the water.

A little stroll along the river Forth. The first image showing the iconic Old Stirling bridge and the second image showing nature further nature development on the banks of the river. In the background you see the Highland Gate estate with our former house, the 2nd from the left.

Forth Bridge.
🇬🇧 The Forth bridge is one of three bridges over the Firth of Forth. The bridges connect the towns North Queensferry and South Queensferry. When it opened in 1890, the railway bridge had the largest span in the world and is made entirely of steel. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2015.
Every day, around 200 trains use the 2.5 kilometre long Forth Bridge to cross the Forth. The two other bridges in this area are located inland an make it possible to cross the Firth o by car.

🇩🇪 Die Forth Bridge verbindet als eine der drei Brücken über die Flussmündung des Forth die Orte North und South Queensferry. Die Eisenbahnbrücke hatte bei ihrer Eröffnung 1890 die weltweite größte Spannweite und ist vollständig aus Stahl hergestellt. Seit 2015 zählt sie zum UNSECO-Weltkulturerbe.
Täglich nutzen ca. 200 Züge die gut 2,5km lange Forth Bridge, um eben den Forth zu überqueren. Die beiden anderen Brücken in ihrer Umgebung (die Forth Road Bridge und Queensferry Crossing) befinden sich landeinwärts und ermöglichen mit dem Auto den Firth of Forth zu überqueren.

Looking much better this evening.

#Stirling #Floods #Flooding #RiverForth #Scotland

The same boathouse as in the image above, but with the water level significantly lower. Floodwater is still visible up the side of the building closest to the river, and this spills over a bit onto the concrete area in front of the boat storage - however, the water level looks to have decreased by around a metre, and a person could walk carefully to the basement doors now. The rowing boats at the side are sitting on grass.

The Forth at Stirling just now. Never seen it this bad in five years of living here. Really hope this is the worst of it.

A view over the Forth to Stirling city centre. The river is burst and very high.

A white 1930s boathouse building, with the boat-storage level half-submerged by the flooded river. Some rowing boats have been brought up to try and avoid the flood water but are beginning to be reached by it.

A lovely view from Alva Glen, once the short climb out of the gorge is complete. Although it was a hazy day you can see all the way to the winding #forth in the distance beyond the plains and Alloa.

A super little walk, easy parking, sculpture trail and informative boards about the heritage of the area.... more details here
