Primrose Line Bridge
Walking along Portford Lane, we were fascinated by the stone walls on either side of the track. Very well made and dressed. Immediately looked like a bridge but the ground was level to either side. I’m sure all the locals would have known what it was, but it took us a bit of research to discover that this had been a bridge over the Primrose Line from South Brent to Kingsbridge. The original cutting was filled in and levelled. There must be a nice bridge under there!
