This footbridge replaced an earlier bridge in 1989. The plaque states that it was the first of its type in the United Kingdom. I have been unable to find out to what this is referring. The bridge is a closed spandrel type with what appears to be a metal arch. For another view of the bridge see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3235340 .
