Road junction, Coalport The concrete road serves a sewage works and soon runs along the trackbed of the Severn Valley Railway (closed 1963) to Stanley Lane, Bridgnorth. It is now part of the National Cycle Network, which may have taken some negotiation judging by the kind of notices you find around here.

Coalport Bridge If it were not for the neighbour upstream, this bridge would be very famous. It is another pioneering iron bridge, dating to 1818. The bridge is still open to traffic but with a weight restriction.  Obviously given the chemistry of iron, these bridges do age and later in the year a similar bridge was demolished at Saltmoor in the south of the county.
