Bluestone Bridge

A medieval, stone, humpback bridge hosts a tense confrontation between a large troll and a goat. Thankfully they can settle who will back down over a game of pooh sticks! The goat loves to climb and the troll is a good sport.

I have always enjoyed looking at and going over old bridges like this since I was a kid and wanted to build one. I am also a big fan of the castle theme so included a troll and a goat as a nod to this and various folk tales of bridge crossings. The build itself could also fit into a city setting (with the troll removed XD ) as many of these bridges survive into modern times. A combination of silliness, fantasy themes, architecture and goats makes this entry my dream gift with purchase set.

On a technical level, I was especially pleased the ice guards (the pointy bricks sticking out at a 45 degree angle), these were really tricky to build! I think the overall arch shape came out well too.

I hope you like it!
