| + | One minor point, I would hesitate to use [[bastion]] to describe the triangular projections in the bridge (a bastion is a polygonal projection forming part of a fortification; in this case, by drawing an analogy with military architecture the projections on the bridge are actually more similar to a [[redan]] than a bastion). I see that the term "bastion" was actually used in a source, so perhaps it can be included in the article but with an explanation on what it actually means in this case? | ||
