Looking along North Street over the River Wylye on Burden's Ball Bridge. The Grade II Listed bridge ( http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-319268-burden-s-ball-bridge-wilton ) was originally built in the late 18th or early 19th century and was then first widened at the end of the 19th century with replacements done in the 1960's and again in 2010 ( http://www.wiltshire.gov.uk/parkingtransportandstreets/roadshighwayspavements/bridges/bridgescurrentlyunderconstruction/structuresscrossandburdensballbridge.htm ). There is a benchmark on the outside of the further buttress (Image).
