The 1850 cast iron bridge over the Teme at Ashford Carbonel/Ashford Bowdler was replaced in 2014. The old bridge was lifted out on the morning of 27th December and it is hoped that the new bridge will be installed later in the day. Thanks to the Ludlow bypass (A49) it was easy to get close to the action.
