bri - Pooley Bridge [1794 to 2015]

The stone arches of the bridge at Pooley Bridge.
This was erected in 1764 {replacing an earlier bridge from the 16th century}. It was washed away on 6 December 2015 when Cumbria was hit by heavy flooding during Storm Desmond, after storm waters scoured the riverbed from around & under the bridge piers.

When this beautiful bridge was swept away during Storm Desmond [Dec 2015] some humourist stuck a black tape cross over the Bridge in Pooley Bridge on the sign at one end of the village.
