Reflection of Pulteney Bridge, Bath, UK
The now iconic V-shape design we see today was actually part of a complete rebuild in the early 1970s. A sluice and controlled flood gates were also added in the upgrade. But before that a horseshoe weir was in place since at least 1603 to prevent severe flooding throughout Bath

This print captures the mesmerizing reflection of Pulteney Bridge, a true gem nestled in the heart of Bath, UK. The iconic V-shape design that we admire today is actually a result of a complete rebuild in the early 1970s. This architectural marvel not only showcases its aesthetic beauty but also serves as an important flood prevention measure for the city. Intriguingly, before this modern reconstruction, a horseshoe weir stood proudly since at least 1603 to protect Bath from devastating floods. However, with time and changing needs, an upgrade became necessary. The refurbishment included the addition of a sluice and controlled flood gates to enhance its functionality while preserving its historical charm. The photographer's keen eye has perfectly captured this historic landmark against a backdrop of serene waters that mirror every intricate detail flawlessly. The image invites us to appreciate both the bridge's striking architecture and its harmonious relationship with nature. As we gaze upon this photograph print by A Richard Poolton from Fine Art Storehouse, we are transported back in time while simultaneously appreciating how human ingenuity has adapted to meet contemporary challenges. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, elements of history can be seamlessly integrated into our present landscape – creating timeless masterpieces like Pulteney Bridge for generations to come.
