Arlingham Passage
Arlingham Passage
The site of a ford across the river, in use until the 19thC, when changes in the river's course in 1802 made it unusable. It was replaced by a ferry from Newnham to Arlingham which was in use until after WWII. The pylons are the southernmost two of four carrying electricity cables across the river.
