On much closer inspection I'm not sure that is another arch on the right.  Could just be a tree.  But the bridge walkway does seem to extend to the right.

Also could that white blob on the right, a bit higher up, be a house?

Looks to me like there's a snowman in a black hat standing on the bridge above the right hand "arch" - okay, maybe not a snowman, just made me think of a snowman!

Not that that helps any....

A "Wade" bridge maybe? Perthshire perhaps.

I wonder if it has any connection with photo WAI no. 135 which was Perth?

I thought it was this one at Grange in the Lake District but I can't find another view.

Frank yours has a hump, this one appears to be flat.

That has been the big problem most small single spans are humped.

I've seen the Shutterstock bridges too Frank...there are so many that are alike...I have reallt travelled this afternoon....I have been to the Lake District, Derbyshire, Scotland, Wales and Dartmoor to name but a few...until I was seeing humps before my eyes. I was convinced that I would have found it in the Lake District  :-\
Someone will spot it...eventually.
