Yes! The earlier bridge looked something like this on one side and with stone piers on the other. (I couldn't find a full picture online quickly but have one here!)

The bridges crossing the Wye, give or take a bit on this site have a very long and interesting history. I was trying to work out if the commonly written history on all the modern web sites was actually correct or just something someone had written as an idea or memory at some point which has just been copied and possibly embellished over time. Great thanks for the help.
