Description:The footbridge carrying Meadow Lane across the Trent at Little Haywood was built in 1830. Previously the river was crossed by a ford, still used by cattle and horse-drawn vehicles after the bridge was constructed. The wooden bridge was replaced by the brick and stone-built Weetman's Bridge in 1887.
