The wooden swing bridge on the Kennet and Avon Canal near the village of Sulhamstead in Berkshire, found on the stretch of water between Tyle Mill and Theale. There are a number of swing bridges along the canal, some like this one linking two fields, enabling livestock to be moved from one to the other. The K&A dates from the early 18th century when it was constructed to link the River Avon in the west to the River Kennet in the east so that boats could travel between Bristol and London.
