  • Stopham Bridge near Pulborough is very old. In this vintage episode I am exploring the bridges along the River Arun from Littlehampton, through Arundel and on to Stopham.
    Join the Bald Explorer as he discovers Britain.

    G'day Richard. Because I only found your UA-cam page recently. I am going back through time to early stories like this one. Fascinating to watch this one and then jump to more recent Vlogs in 2020 and 2021. I enjoyed watching this story.

    This is a great video combined with your video on Stopham church, which l have said before is my favorite video.

    Came across this bridge on my travels today and wanted to know more, so Google search and a Bald Explorer video gets returned! Hard to imagine it was in use up to 1986, the traffic queues must had been massive at times.

    Thankyou for showing us. Very interesting. In Devon we mostly still use the 600 year old bridges.

    Excellent as usual. I used to swim at Littlehampton when I was at school near Petworth, actually near Duncton, both of which you have covered in your quest for England and Pulborough was the nearest railway station.

    Hi Richard, I've only found this old video of yours as I am a member of another walking group on Facebook and someone is organising a walk to Stopham Bridge.
    I haven't heard of Stopham and that's why I was interested in watching this.
    Have driven over Pulborough bridge numerous times and have recently been to Arundel to meet a new cousin who is a volunteer on the Wey and Arun canal.

    Been there, seen it, done it. Great food at the pub-on-the-bridge! We love old roads and always look for those that are by-passed by 'modern improvements'.

    great video, I think for anyone in the Arun valley, the River plays a great importance to our well being.

      Thanks Paul. Yes, I think you are right. Water is a great thing for the soul.
