Photograph taken by Robzet approximately 1996

Listed as ‘Footbridge’ on 1988 map (which is very confusing as on the 1986 map ‘Wooden Walkway’ on the Ridding Wood Trail listed as ‘Footbridge’). This was a bridge on the Millwood trail over a small brook. Created out of multiple chopped wooden logs stacked on each other. It is reminiscent of the huge log piles in the forest after tree felling. Last listed on 1998 map it was then removed and replaced with a normal bridge.
