The Forth Rail Bridge mb-artist Young Billy JenningsThe Forth Rail Bridge. The Forth Bridge (Built 1890) was the largest span bridge in the world. The bridge took seven years to build, cost 3 million at the time and used over 50,000 tons of steel. It was the largest civil engineering structure achieved during the nineteenth century and, although William Morris described it as 'the supremest specimen of all ugliness', it remains one of the industrial wonders of the world.
