Copgrove

Farnham, Shaw Bridge Shaw Bridge crosses a small stream; the track to the north goes to Copgrove, and the track to the south to Farnham. The OS database records a rivet on the eastern parapet of the bridge. Nothing was found. The bridge does not appear to be rebuilt. The parapet was only one stone course deep. It is likely the rivet and benchmark may now be covered with the deposits of mud on the track. — Farnham, Shaw Bridge Credit: Mel Towler
