I cross this one everyday and it's the one i know better. It's from 1966, so it's quite recent.

The earlier pictures were mainly from the South, I'll find some from the North some other time. For now, here are some viaducts and railway bridges. The Victorians built viaducts all over the place, especially in the hilly areas of Northern England, Wales and Scotland. Some of the best examples are in the Scottish Highlands and Yorkshire Dales.

A bridge from my region
http://www.infotourism.net/documents/15290_kadinmost.jpg
This brigde has a lot of history

The legend says that the vizir decided to build the bridge because one day while he was on his way to Bosnia, he couldn’t cross the swift-flowing river of Struma. As the story tells, there were three brothers who were assigned to build the bridge. So the three young men started building it but whatever they did, they worked in vain. Because what they managed to build during the day, the river destroyed it at night and washed everything away. The brothers were wondering what to do. They thought very hard trying to find a solution. After many days they arrived at a decision that the river wants something and they should offer up a sacrifice. In order to build the bridge and fulfill their task, the three brothers decided to built-in within the stone walls of the bridge one of their beautiful and beloved wives. Since they could not choose which one, they decided that the busiest one, who is going to bring her husband lunch first, should be the one.

It turned out that it was the wife of master Manol. Her name was Struma. She came first, bringing the bread she baked for her husband and carrying their first child. Then the brothers built her in the middle of the bridge vault. The poor woman was begging for mercy and crying. Finally, when she understood that they will not change their minds, the only thing that she asked crying was to leave holes for her eyes and for her breast so she could see and feed her child. Before long the misfortuned mother died and her milk turned into stone on the walls of the bridge. Since then many nursing mothers from all over the country come to the bridge, take piece of the stone, boil it and drink the water in order to have enough milk for their children.

Bridges from...

If I may deviate off the original purpose of your OP… I give you the Danyang–Kunshan Grand Bridge. This engineering marvel is 164 km (or 100+ miles) long with the price tag of $8.5 billion

It is instructive that all three of the worlds’ longest bridges are Chinese, and all of them were built a year or two ago. These bridges are, of course, another manifestation of China’s emerging industrial might; as opposed to the world’s tallest buildings, bridges are not about prestige – they are a barometer of real and growing infrastructure needs.
