Bailey Bridge, 1946-1976
Notes from Moddsey:
The Bailey bridge at Man Kam To constructed in 1945 remained in use till 1976. The book 'Feeling the Stones: Reminiscences by David Akers-Jones' mentions the removal of the old rusty bridge here from Page 99. Had the thought that Chicks Bridge was so named due to the transport of livestock (particularly chickens) across the border.
