“Glad to note the prompt correction, 'dissing' 'Road' in the name of the bridge. Thanks.
And in my 'piece', please read, 'There. It's on a name-plate...' Sorry about that. Coffee and keyboards don't mix. Well, yes they DO, and that's the trouble!”

“And another thing!
It's NOT "Corporation Road Bridge" -- It's 'Corporation Bridge'. Doggit! There's on a name-plate commemorating its construction on the bridge itself.
Doggelpus!!
Also, it's a construction of the London & North Eastern Railway Company -- the outfit that was responsible for the Grimsby as we knew it, before successive 'administrations' destroyed it. Guess who hi-jacked it by name!!”

“Have those historic original lamps been returned to the famous LNER Scherzer bridge yet? Or is this what they're doing?”
