Lambeth Bridge

Most noteworthy is that bridge is closed. Local mail carrier stated that it had been closed in April and that it had made the mail route most inconvienient to run. She states that there is talk of replacement and talk of repair,but apparently no funds for either at the moment. Beautiful bridge, hard to photo due to trees.

Sign at north end proclaimed 6 ton limit prior to closing. Deck is rotten with no obvious structural damage.
