Norfolk villagers and National Trust at loggerheads over 'fairy bridge' that appeared in the night
An ad hoc crossing removed in a safety row has been mysteriously replaced.
The tale of Stiffkey bridge began in February 2022, when the Trust removed the original footbridge linking the village of Stiffkey to the magnificent salt marshes and sand dunes of the north Norfolk coast. This move, on grounds that the bridge had become unsafe, sparked a row between the villagers and the guardian of the nation’s heritage that has rumbled on for more than 18 months and has led to the creation of what, according to a scribbled sign, is The Stiffkey Fairy Bridge.
The bridge is about five metres long and the width of just a single wooden plank, supported by scaffolding poles and a handrail for support.
It's no feat of engineering, but offers an alternative to wading through the creek and scrambling down its banks at low tide, and possibly a lifeline at high tide when other routes are cut off.
Once upon a time, there was a bridge. Some say it was built by fairies.
"It lasted about four or five weeks before the National Trust took it down in a dawn raid," says Ian Curtis. "The police were informed. But, of course, the fairies were watching and they put another one up. A better one this time, which is much harder to take down."
A number of the village inhabitants are in dispute with the National Trust after a bridge providing access to the marshes was removed. Subsequently it led to an unofficial one being installed, apparently by 'marsh fairies'.
Pictures shows: collects of women cocklepickers crossing a bridge on the marsh in 1901.

Once upon a time, there was a bridge. Some say it was built by fairies.
"It lasted about four or five weeks before the National Trust took it down in a dawn raid," says Ian Curtis. "The police were informed. But, of course, the fairies were watching and they put another one up. A better one this time, which is much harder to take down."
A number of the village inhabitants are in dispute with the National Trust after a bridge providing access to the marshes was removed. Subsequently it led to an unofficial one being installed, apparently by 'marsh fairies'.

Norfolk villagers and National Trust at loggerheads over 'fairy bridge' that appeared in the night
An ad hoc crossing removed in a safety row has been mysteriously replaced.
The tale of Stiffkey bridge began in February 2022, when the Trust removed the original footbridge linking the village of Stiffkey to the magnificent salt marshes and sand dunes of the north Norfolk coast. This move, on grounds that the bridge had become unsafe, sparked a row between the villagers and the guardian of the nation’s heritage that has rumbled on for more than 18 months and has led to the creation of what, according to a scribbled sign, is The Stiffkey Fairy Bridge.
The bridge is about five metres long and the width of just a single wooden plank, supported by scaffolding poles and a handrail for support.
It's no feat of engineering, but offers an alternative to wading through the creek and scrambling down its banks at low tide, and possibly a lifeline at high tide when other routes are cut off.
