The former location of the bridge over the railway
The railway line ran the other side of the clearway sign and directly into Blythburgh station TM4575 : Reconstruction of Blythburgh station in progress
The bridge was designated #11, was a girder bridge with brick abutments having a 29 foot span over the railway, carrying what was at the time known as the Yarmouth Turnpike, since renamed the A12.
Originally described as a humpback bridge it was built over the Southwold railway in 1879 and rebuilt in 1907 with a wider span to facilitate the proposed second railway track, which never materialised.
