Newbury StationDuring the Second World War a temporary or emergency bridge was built over the Kennet and Avon canal, joining the park with the centre of town. The reason for this was because it was feared the Town Bridge was to be bombed which would have effectively split the town in two.
Although it was supposed to be a temporary bridge it became a key crossing point and lasted up until 2001 when it was replaced with a new structure. Erroneously this was called the American Bridge because although it was built by civilian contractors for the War Office its plans had been stamped by the American Army, certifying its use for their forces.
A major problem with the temporary bridge was that it was only 7 ft high, much lower than the recommended height of 8 ft 6 in.
