<title>House on Kerne Bridge</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It might be a couple of years ago that there was some discussion here about Kerne Bridge and the station, I might be wrong, but I can't think of any other forum where I would have seen it discussed.  Anyway some woman posted that her grandfather? used to cut hair in a barbers shop on the bridge, something I couldn't comment on not knowing the bridge and area that well.  She was told in replies to her post that she was wrong, that there has never been a house on Kerne bridge but there was.  It wasn't on the bridge in the sense of being part of it, but I came across an old postcard/photo online with a view looking down from the hill outside Goodrich, and on the Gloucestershire side of the bridge on the downstream side there was a small house that the bridge wall met.  The station and railway look very new which I think would make it the 1870's - 80's.  I think the building was soon demolished as there's no sign of it in later photo's.  This may be of interest to somebody or simply sink out of site.</p>
