Description: Longford River bridge with William IV 1834 sign. The bridge is at the west of the village of Longford, near the A3044 roundabout. The river was dug in 1638 when Charles I wanted to divert water from the Colne to Hampton Court gardens. The bridge was built in 1834; see "This is Longford" site http://www.thisislongford.com/LongfordRiver.htm for a detailed account. The river and bridge are still crown property.
