Taken a few hours after the bridge was opened to traffic, looking away from the village. We are looking at the spot where the western end of the (temporary) pedestrian bridge stood. I imagine that this ground will be landscaped, and then returned to its owners.

I am slightly surprised at the relatively low height of the retaining wall against future flooding.
