The River Teme and Bridge at Knightwick.

Photograph (Many thanks to Major [Retd] Janet Brodie-Murphy) of the original metal bridge, over the river Teme, at Knightwick. Again a lovely scene with a couple of chaps surveying what appears to be the debris/damage from a recent flood. It looks like all the bank with trees, roots etc. has collapsed in to the river on the right and the central stantions are surrounded by flood debris. I'll just mention here, that to me it looks like one of the supports is bending in the middle towards the left, maybe this is why they put a concrete one there later for strength.
