Buckingham: The Ford
Once upon a time this ford over the River Great Ouse was the main route into the centre of the town from the south, and the whole thoroughfare up to Well Street in the distance was known as Ford Street. By 1805 the main London Bridge had been built further downstream, to the east and to the right, and the ford lost its importance. Today the pedestrian Woolpack Bridge on the left has replaced an earlier structure, and the road on the far side has been renamed as an extension of Elm Street, coming down across and from the far side of Well Street. Nonetheless the tyre tracks in the mud indicate that some use of it is still made by motor traffic today.
The Buckingham Town Council Winter 2010 newsletter has some news on the ford here http://www.buckingham-tc.gov.uk/newsitems/newsletter_storage/2010-01-newsletter_web.pdf

Buckingham: The Woolpack Bridge
The current bridge dates from 1988 and replaced an earlier six arch stone bridge over the River Great Ouse.
Image is just beyond the bridge, while the outbuildings of The Woolpack public house are visible left.
The pedestrian route along the river is known as the Chris Nicholls Walk. Returfing and reseeding of the river bank has evidently recently taken place.
