This footbridge gives all the impressions of having been erected as a temporary structure, yet it has been a fixture in Rickmansworth for at least the last 30 years! The photographer thinks that it was built in the late 1970s when the nearby Rickmansworth Park Junior Mixed and Infant School was opened, to provide access across what was then the Rickmansworth By-pass, between the school and the centre of the town. Today the road is the A412 Park Road, with the High Street going off to the left from the mini-roundabout.
