Full Description

Two bridges (& causeway?) , one crossing River Lark and the other the mill leat (see MNL 455). Bridge/s are mapped here in 1755 (S1) and 1783 (S2). Construction date unknown - further documentary searches needed, but probably of Medieval origin. The existing southernmost of the two is a larger and modern reconstruction though earlier elements may underlie it.
