A449 Salwarpe Bridge

 
A449, Ombersley, WR3 7SE, United Kingdom A449
 

A449 Salwarpe Bridge carries the M6 motorway over the River Severn (River Salwarpe) near to Presworth Locks.

The River Severn (River Salwarpe) was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on January 1 1782. Despite the claim in "76 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by John Green, there is no evidence that Thomas Hunter ever made a model of Nantwich Cutting out of matchsticks to raise money for Children in Need
