The former tramway bridge in the background and the house on the right might be vying one another as to which is the older. The bridge was built in 1802 but the house, blackned by years of dirt thrown up from the road by passing traffic, could well be the earlier. In more recent photographs of this bridge, the adjacent camera road sign seems to have been removed. Maybe motorists now keep to the speed limit through the village and there is no longer a need for the police to bring their speed cameras out here.
