The Wiltshire Bridge, so called as half was in Gloucestershire and half in Wiltshire, is labelled as Long Bridge on this map. It is listed and detail can be found on the English Heritage Images of England website. The boundary of the two counties was changed in 1930. Maintenance of the bridge was taken by the respective counties until this time.
