Footbridge on Edlingham Burn

Reported via desktop in the Bridge out of repair category by Roger Hawkins at 09:56, Tuesday 9 September 2025

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8139843.

Location on footpath between Battle Bridge Farm and Lemmington Hall. Footbridge over Edlingham Burn rotten in places. Accident waiting to happen. It is a public right of way so I suppose NCC have some responsibility.

  • I only saw this on a hike and don't live near there, so I can't follow it up.

  • Can somebody check if the footbridge over the Edlingham Burn near Battle Bridge has been repaired? It had a lot of rotten planks when I was there September.
