This road bridge carries Carre Street over the dry, non-navigable spur of the Sleaford Navigation (a canal) that ends here abruptly where this restaurant has created an outdoor dining area. Behind the photographer blue 'finger signs' at the entrance and/or exit of a footpath point pedestrians in the direction of various local leisure-related amenities. The same footpath also leads to Cogglesford Mill Lock. Money's Mill, a former windmill situated in Money's Yard Car Park, is also visible. It was built c.1796 to capitalise upon the existence of the new canal that allowed for corn to be off-loaded from barges at the foot of it.
