Allensford Bridge: A Glimpse into the Past on the County Durham and Northumberland Border This evocative photograph captures the old Allensford Bridge, spanning the picturesque River Derwent on the County Durham and Northumberland border. The narrow two-arched structure, with its distinctive stone parapets, once stood as a vital connection between the two counties, allowing travelers and traders to cross the river with ease. Dating back to the 1910s, this image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into a time when horse-drawn carriages and foot traffic were the primary modes of transportation. The bridge's simple yet elegant design, combined with the tranquil setting, creates a scene that is both timeless and captivating. Sadly, the old Allensford Bridge was replaced in 1925, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the history and character that has been lost. The River Derwent, which flows gently beneath the bridge, continues to wind its way through the beautiful countryside, offering a constant reminder of the area's rich history and natural beauty. This photograph, taken circa 1910s, is an invaluable record of a bygone era, and a testament to the enduring allure of the past. It invites us to reflect on the stories and memories that were once a part of this idyllic scene, and to appreciate the importance of preserving our heritage for future generations.
