Bridge built/rebuilt 1939. No sign of fb but a National River Authourity small, round disc with bench mark type arrow on N face of bridge. Probably replaced with G3553 which is nearby.

Road now duel carriage way and bridge undoubtedly rebuilt. It looked so unpromising that I didn't stop. Just possible that it survives.
