Trade premises, Shefford
Unit 12 houses Broome Signs, AS Technical Solutions, AS Pub Sports and Fab Flooring. The twin AS businesses are totally different - mainly flue gas sampling and analysis, and a retail outlet for pool, snooker and darts equipment. I suppose when there was not too much call on gas sampling, they went down the pub. Plenty in Shefford.

Roman Catholic buildings, High Street, Shefford
All Grade II* listed, from the late 19th century, from the right: the presbytery, the church of St. Francis of Assisi, and St. Francis's Home (former orphanage and seminary). Number 23, a plain red brick house at the left, also appears to be part of the site. The presbytery, rather oddly, is embellished with 'St. George for England' rather than anything to do with St. Francis. Perhaps to placate the locals faced with a massive invasion of their High Street by Romans.

Inn sign, The Bridge, Shefford
The pub is named after a former railway bridge which crossed the road hard up against the pub. The bridge was demolished in 1976, the railway closed in 1962. Unfortunately 70013 'Oliver Cromwell' never used the route, particularly in preservation guise bearing a central flashing headlamp.
An earlier inn sign was no better, showing a green locomotive and green coaches on a former Midland Railway line, with a bridge of high narrow arches, the actual bridge had a rather flat wide arch over the road - Image
