Originally designed for the Horse and Cart it has stood up well. Radford Bridge was similar what happened to that?

I wonder how long it took to come up with those names.

What no pig-based names?

St Ives (Huntingdonshire) had a new police station built in Pig Lane, council changed the street name, police & local population not happy as both thought it was appropriate

Enjoying a drop of red.
I'm still at a bit of a loss as to how the larger lorries are going to access the industrial estate as, even though the canal bridge may be being strengthened to accommodate them (allegedly) it's not going to make the other bridges any wider to enable them to actually get round.

Also @Steve_b, do you know if, whilst the 'strengthening' work on the canal bridge is taking place, whether the tow path remains open?
