Description

Here you see an ancient packhorse bridge which would have been used by the locals to avoid the ford which would often be in flood. It would have been used by horses, cattle and sheep as well. This is situated in the small village of Allerford in Somerset, UK.

A gorgeous little old bridge! In this country they would have torn it down long ago and put in a wide ugly concrete one. Great shot!
