Sheepwash Bridge, Ashford-in-the-Water, Derbyshire, England

For a long time, I have fancied making a photo of the old bridge over the River Wye at Ashford-in-the-Water but never had the sun in the right place. This is the result when I finally had some of my way. However, the light was flatter than I would have liked so another attempt earlier in the day may be needed. For now though, here is the bridge with its sheep enclosure at the left. These days, it is closed to traffic, so folk can mill around and admire the surroundings with the hubbub of traffic on the nearby A6 in the background, not that you would have expected that by looking at the scene we have here.
