Old Worcester
basil | 2/20/2007 | 5:09 pmIn 1780 two Toll Houses were erected at the western end of Worcester Bridge on the line of the old English and Welsh border.Money was taken from travellers until 1809. A Worcester citizen, Mr William Broughton paid the first and last toll.
When Worcester Bridge was widened in 1932 the buildings were dismantled and re-erected in a Leamington Spa Park.Presumably the Council sold them for City funds. Max Sinclair
