Picture 16 - Ludham Bridge.

LUDHAM BRIDGE. The dimensions of the forbidding single arch of Ludham Bridge, which is a bugbear to owners of large yachts, will be useful knowledge to those desirous of cruising in the Barton and Stalham Broads. The greatest span of arch is 15ft. 4 in. ; span three feet above water, 13ft. 2in. ; height from crown of arch to surface of water in summer, 7 ft. The drainage mill near the Bridge is one of the many landmarks known to regular habitues of these waters. Thousands of acres of marshland would be under water in winter but for these pumping mills. Ludham is a large, well-built village; the church is a fine structure, with an embattled tower.
