Capstone

edit

So any use of the word "Capstone" in other articles links here, and yet there's no mention of the word on the page anywhere. Short of looking it up in Wiktionary I still don't know what a capstone is, which rather makes the linking somewhat unhelpful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.174.54.232 (talk) 02:43, 30 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Poor picture

edit

The coping stones in thhe current picture are bearly visible - sandwiched between the arches and the concrete deck, and partly obscured by the facade. There must be a better picture somewhere. Obscurasky (talk) 21:42, 24 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

OK, I've just gone ahead and changed it anyway. Admittedly not such an impressive bridge, but it is a much better illustration of coping stones. Obscurasky (talk) 21:52, 24 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
