Although the 1939 - 1945 is very prominent, I think it was a later addition, as the top line of the inscription reads 'In thankfulness to God for victory in the Great War'. The lettering style is a little quirky with some of the letters smaller than others and the 'legs' cross over their neighbours.
On this trip to Brighton we first came across Seaford, where we now live. There were few photos taken here on that occasion, as we had first headed east to Seaford and then back to Rottingdean, where we got a no.2 bus around the north of Brighton and then along to Shoreham, by which time we were somewhat weary.
A website that gives the history of Shoreham's bridges is www.glaucus.org.uk/Bridges2.htm You can find out why it is the 'Norfolk Bridge' on the coast of Sussex.
It wasn't just me mad enough to come out and snap away on a day like this. The seagull obviously decided the fog would impede his fishing, because he came along eyeing up our chips a bit later.
