Little Canford, Bailey Bridge
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Little Canford, Bailey Bridge Private bridge over the River Stour, from Little Canford to Canford Magna; girder and planks.
In the Experimental Bridge Establishment in Christchurch, bridges of various types were designed for the army. When the modified First World War bridge failed to carry new tanks, the ideas of Donald Bailey (later Sir) were accepted. The bridge photographed at Little Canford is a copy of the 4500 Bailey Bridges used in the Second World War in Europe. There were more used in Asia. There is another Bailey Bridge, albeit a lot shorter, on Stanpit Marsh https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1051074 . |
