More about this scene
Here we see the 13th-century Buddle Bridge (centre) and the buildings of Bridge Street which crossed it until demolitions for road widening in 1913. Bridge Street was known as Beaufront Street until the Middle Ages, and the land still sloped down to the sea until these sea walls were built after the Civil War. The word Buddle, the ancient dialect name for the estuary of the River Lim, described its previous state as an outlet choked by shingle.
