Bridge in question appears to be over stream running E to river. W side of road is house immediately S of bridge with no sign of FB; further S is just a retaining wall. No sign of FB on E side of road (roadside)

The cottages were demolished many years ago and I suspect the FB was lost or destroyed. According to my old OS 6' map it was halfway along the row directly opposite the southern end of the cottages across the road.
