The White Bridge over the Leam The 'White Bridge' is, or was, a local name for a footbridge, one of two that carry a footpath over the River Leam and a narrow wooded island within it. To the east, the path crosses Offchurch Bury Park to Offchurch village. To the west it forks, one path climbing the hill to Lillington, the other following the river valley into Leamington.
