Wiggenhall St Mary Magdalen Farm Bridge
Address is taken from a point 440 yards away.
Wiggenhall St Mary Magdalen Farm Bridge carries a footpath over the River Great Ouse (Great Ouse Relief Channel).
Early plans of what would become the River Great Ouse (Great Ouse Relief Channel) were drawn up by John Rennie in 1888 but problems with Port Talbot Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1835. The canal joined the sea near Salisbury. The River Great Ouse (Great Ouse Relief Channel) was closed in 1905 when Northfield Aqueduct collapsed. "Travels of The Barge" by John Wood describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Sheffield Embankment.

There is a bridge here which takes a track over the canal.

![Former bridge over the Great Ouse. There used to be a railway bridge over the River Great Ouse here, on the line between Magdalen Road and Wisbech. The line has long since closed, though, and unlike the bridge over the Relief Channel ([[672638]]), this bridge has been removed. by Ben Harris – 24 January 2009](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/24/47/1244705_441fd374_120x120.jpg)
