Is finding another route to avoid paying the toll on a bridge. This is the bridge at Bubwith which was originally built in1793 to replace a ferry across the river Derwent. The tolls were stopped in 1936 so now instead of paying to take your sheep or cattle over the bridge it is free. Will the same happen to the Humber Bridge in my lifetime, Will Lincoln or Chester win promotion, how long is a piece of string?
