The Albert Bridge
The Albert Bridge
Albert Bridge between Battersea and Chelsea. Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, but it's difficult to argue there's a prettier bridge in London than Albert's. The bridge is currently painted pink, blue and green, in an attempt to increase visibility in fog and murky light — so no errant ships collide with it. There were fears that soldiers from the nearby Chelsea Barracks would cause vibrations to reverberate through the bridge and cause permanent damage. This this led to the bridge's nickname, 'The Trembling Lady'.
