Another one solved, well done, that was difficult because so many bridges look alike. Now to find the one with the weir, number 176 ;D ;D

Hello Cazza59,
     Hope this is the proof you need.
     Not much of the bridge on show on this old Postcard but click on the image to enlarge and take a close look at the hill in the background. I'd be grateful if someone would do an overlay but I'm 100% sure your "Little Bridge" is Brig o' Turk.
     Hope I'm not too early to say congratulations. Fantastic find. :) ;D ;D :)
     (Especially since I've been searching Scottish bridges for the last 2 weeks) :'(

               Best regards,     Dod.

Yay!!  ;D ;D ;D

Thanks so much for this Dod, but I can't take all the credit.  If it wasn't for Arthurk's link, I would not have found it as I wasn't intentionally looking for it up until Arthur provided the  means!

It's absurdly pleasing to find one of the WAIs that have been outstanding for awhile, and it's akin to finding that elusive ancestor!!  ;D ;D

Wow, well done Cazza!
Like others, I was searching the Lake District.  ::)
Brilliant find - no doubt in my mind.

Yorkslass

Thanks Yorkslass!  :) :) :)  Have to reiterate though, if it wasn't for Arthur, we'd still be looking!

Compare with the colour photo :)

Forgot to thank you for this Geoff.   Does provide two further points for comparison if there was any doubt.  :) :)

Good one  ;D :D

You need to share in the credit Arthur, without your brilliant link I wouldn't have found it.  The one thing that narrowed the search on that site, was starting to search around areas where other WAIs had been located and it paid off!

We need to keep that link handy for any future searches!  8) 8)
