Cotswold Canals in Pictures

Site of Blue House Bridge, Siddington

Blue House Bridge was built of brick and sited at the point where the road disappears under the trees in the more recent photos, close to the house. The bridge was demolished some years ago to make access easier for farm traffic.

There is a short public right of way across the field approaching the bridge. This then takes a right turn at the lane to rejoin Ewen Road.
