Possible Streetview.

Quite a grand front door!
Niall McAuley said:
NIAH entry says: Round-headed door opening with spoked fanlight, sidelights and timber panelled door with pedimented porch having fluted Doric columns and dentil entablature. Mind you, it also says: Although a later addition, the elaborate Classically-styled porch enlivens the otherwise plain façade.

(Illustrated Glossary of Classical Architecture for anyone else who wants to know what "dentil entablature" means.)
Niall McAuley said:
The later addition was in place by 1909 when the OSI 25" survey was done.

The view counter is standing at 499,953, the kettle is on and the other Marys are baking buns to beat the band.

I think it's this one: NIAH. "Four-arch road bridge, built c.1660, carrying Bridge Street over the River Camcor. Abutments and piers of random rubble. Single V-cutwater to upstream pier. Soffits altered during five phases. Arches of segmental and semicircular profile. Parapets of random rubble. Upstream parapet replaced with a two bar metal railing towards its south end and downstream one is surmounted by a metal railing. Houses were erected on the upstream and downstream sides and were demolished in the 1970s."

25" OSI showing the houses on the bridge.

British Army posters say before Independence.
