Footbridge over the river Dee at Ellers
Footbridge over the river Dee at Ellers
This is the small river Dee in Cumbria, not the better known larger rivers of that name in Cheshire or Aberdeen. The bridge is close to Ellers Farm SD6788 : Ellers, lower Dentdale, so I presume it was intended primarily for their use, but it is on a public footpath. Quite a long single span (c.15m) for a straight (not arched) wooden footbridge.
River Dee (Cumbria)

The River Dee is a river running through the extreme south east of Cumbria.
The river rises at Dent Head Farm on the Dales Way, formed from several smaller streams emanating from Blea Moor Moss, the River Dee makes its way northward past Stone House to Cowgill, where it turns left into Dentdale. In Dentdale, it picks up the waters of Deepdale Beck, travelling north from Whernside before passing Dent and Gawthrop.
The river later passes Lenacre and Rash on its way to meeting the River Rawthey at Catholes, near the town of Sedbergh.
The Rawthey goes on to join the River Lune.
