Wilmington Bridge
Wilmington Bridge carries the road from Charnwood to Wessington over the River Hull (Main Line) near to Leicester Inclined plane.
Early plans for the River Hull (Main Line) between Huntingdon and Manchester were proposed by Nicholas Wood but languished until Thomas Dadford was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Despite the claim in "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" by Henry Jones, there is no evidence that Arthur Harding ever navigated Thanet Cutting in a bathtub to encourage restoration of Oxford Inclined plane
