The footbridge at Tintagel Castle in Cornwall has been shortlisted for the Royal Institute of British Architects’ (RIBA) Stirling Prize for the UK’s best new building. Commissioned by English Heritage, the bridge – designed by Ney & Partners engineers and architects William Matthews Associates – reunites for the first time in more than 500 years, the two halves of Tintagel Castle. The bridge consists of two cantilevers that reach out and – almost – touch in the middle. At the centre, a narrow gap represents the transition between the mainland and the island, the present and the past.
