“Imagine living above a bustling shop, wouldn’t that be exciting?” As if plucked from a fantastical tale, our next stop, Greenwood Road Bridge, sits quite close to a site with an extraordinary past. While the bridge itself is a modern construction, it holds a connection to a history that once unfolded just a stone’s throw away. You see, Greenwood Road Bridge stands near where a remarkable house once stood. This wasn’t just any house; it was built upon the former grounds of a pub garden. This modern architectural marvel, designed by architects Patrick and Claudia Lynch, garnered national recognition for its unique design, winning a prestigious architecture award in 2006. Constructed primarily from rough-sawn European oak, the house, sadly, is no longer standing. However, as we stand near Greenwood Road Bridge, it’s intriguing to consider the echoes of creativity and architectural ingenuity that once graced this very spot.
