Village view with drawbridge, Strijensas, Hoeksche Waard, Netherlands

Beautifully decorated double drawbridge over the lock at the South Holland village of Strijensas, municipality of Hoeksche Waard. The lock in the Port Canal of Strijen dates from 1848. In 1908 the wooden drawbridge over it was replaced by the current bridge, a bridge constructed in traditional traditional style, composed of cast and iron parts. The bridge, locally known as 'the old lady', has been listed as a national monument since 2001. The characteristic building in the foreground was built in 1880. The photo was taken on a cloudy day at the end of the winter season.

Fraai gedecoreerde dubbele ophaalbrug over de sluis bij het Zuid-Hollandse dorp Strijensas, gemeente Hoeksche Waard. De schutsluis in het Havenkanaal van Strijen dateert uit 1848. In 1908 werd de houten ophaalbrug daarover vervangen door de huidige brug, een in traditioneel-ambachtelijke stijl uitgevoerde brug samengesteld uit giet- en welijzeren delen. De brug, ter plaatse bekend als 'de oude dame', staat sinds 2001 te boek als Rijksmonument. Het karakteristieke pand op de voorgrond is gebouwd in 1880. De foto is gemaakt op een bewolkte dag aan het eind van het winterseizoen.
