Lendal Bridge was built by Thomas Page in 1863 and is an iron
bridge with Gothic features. It links Station Road with Museum Street
and thus York railway station with York Minster, and is part of York's
Inner Ring Road. At both ends of the bridge stand towers, Barker Tower
to the west and Lendal Tower to the east. A rope ferry previously
existed at this location. Lendal Bridge was used in Damon and Debbie,
a 1987 spin-off of soap Brookside for the scenes where long running
charcater Damon Grant was murdered.
