An accommodation bridge that now seems to go across the Droitwich Barge Canal from nowhere very much to nowhere very much. There is also a large tree trunk in the roadway. It is, however, quite a pretty bridge. According to Max Sinclair - "This bridge is probably the last surviving untouched Brindley 1770 structure standing on elm tree abutments laid horizontal - cheaper than stone". An amazing fact and I'm grateful to Max for this.
