Alnwick - Lions, Cellars, and Dukes!
... along the River Aln. Everyone back in the day used this bridge if they were heading to Scotland. Many times Scottish invaders came over this bridge to attack the castle. There is a lion on the bridge with his tail sticking straight out, so if you are coming to the castle, you see the mighty face of the lion, but if you are leaving, you get a view of the backside of the lion, with his tail straight out waving goodbye to you.
