Original Bailey Bridge over the River Dives, Robehomme

This is one of the few remaining, perhaps the only one, of the bridges built by the Engineers to replace original structures over the River Dives that were destroyed at dawn on D-Day. Just visible in the centre of the right hand end of the brick wall is a small plaque that commemorates the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion and the 3rd Parachute Squadron
