The 479th in the Little Bridges series, this micro sized cache is located in Milborne Port in the area once known as Kingsbury Regis, but more generally now as just Kingsbury. It was a magnetic type, but is still where you might find a magnetic one!
Kingsbury Regis bridge certainly cannot be used by motor vehicles, and may well be considerably older than many of the bridges in the LB series, since it predates the nearby vehicle bridge which has a stone plaque on it, dated 1856. The bridge is in no way remote, as there are houses all around it, some probably as old as or older than the bridge itself. Built on three stone piers, the walkway comprises just four large slabs of stone,although some modern concessions to the dreaded H & S, in the form of concrete surfacing have been added.
The Little Bridges series was started by Stanthews in 2009 to highlight small footbridges in remote parts of Wiltshire. Since then the series has been expanded by others all over the country and starting to spread fast, Damian from Winter Foxes has created and updates a list of cachers who has found 10 or more little bridges and can be found here, if you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan here and he will give you a number for your bridge, to qualify, the bridge must be a foot bridge too small for vehicles, please make sure your title exactly matches “Little Bridges # xx then name” including spaces so it will get picked up and added to Damian’s list.
