Myton Bridge is a Grade 2 listed Victorian cast-iron structure crossing the River Swale at Myton-on-Swale, at the point where the Swale joins the River Ure to form the River Ouse. There has been a bridge or ferry at this point going back many hundreds of years but sadly, through no fault of the local community, the bridge fell into disrepair, and was closed as a footpath and bridleway by NYCC. After a long campaign, the bridge was fully restored, and reopened in June 2003. The Harrogate Rambling Club is proud to have contributed to the campaign to raise funds to restore the bridge and, on 26 April 2006, John Foster led a B+ walk that visited it. The photographs below (courtesy of Buck White) show some highlights from the visit. To see any picture in more detail, simply click on it. Alternatively, for more information about the bridge and its restoration, follow this link, which will open in a new window.
