Dist:0.3km<br/>Lock No. 6 is just beyond the bridge and its overflow weir is discharging on the right. A new mooring berth has been built bottom left. Compare this with the view almost exactly two years earlier [[754865]].

Dist:0.5km<br/>An accommodation bridge that now seems to go across the Droitwich Barge Canal from nowhere very much to nowhere very much. There is also a large tree trunk in the roadway. It is, however, quite a pretty bridge. According to Max Sinclair - "This bridge is probably the last surviving untouched Brindley 1770 structure standing on elm tree abutments laid horizontal - cheaper than stone". An amazing fact and I'm grateful to Max for this.
