"Looking toward Topsham. With no stiffening truss, the bridge is quite limber. This jogger really shook the deck, challenging the anti-shake feature in my little camera."
"Walkway bricks with donor names, Topsham end."
"Commemorative tablet, Topsham end. Perhaps "Bobbing Bridge" would better describe it, although it probably does swing in a side wind."
"Cable anchorages, Topsham end."
"Underside of deck, from Topsham end, showing lateral bracing."
"Topsham tower, 3/4 view."
"Mounting of Topsham tower to pier."
