Bridge No. 3 rebuilding

I started a planned rebuilding of bridges this year. The bridge No. 3 was first, because it is by the entrace to the garden. It should be grip a visitors.
Construction of the bridge is very complicated, because the bridge ensure two lines crossing in a curve and the upper line is in the uprising. I resolved to build a bridge "bespoke" by Mr Chudoba. He is a specialist for sandstone constructions. You can see his web pages www.gardenrailways.cz for more informations.
Mr Chudoba aquited oneself this project by verve inhere. Structure of the bridge it began and it was gradually extendable to view terrace with cover of cabling.

Bridge No. 3. It was construction
as provisory.

A lots of new bridge engendered
at Mr Chudoba´s workroom in
