Modern bridge.


This bridging point crossing the Colby river is likely to be of some reasonable antiquity. It lies immediately to the west of the junction with the route which follows the river valley northwards, and close to both the former Wesleyan and Primitive Methodist chapels.


A smithy and watermill are recorded nearby on the Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1868, whilst less than 300m to the west is the former site of the fairfield, all of which would have relied on good communications.


The bridge is referred to today as Cubbon's Bridge.
