We ate at the Bailey Bridge restaurant next to the Inn. I wondered about the origin of the name until I discovered what was clearly an old guardroom just down the road on Dragoon Way. I found out that that there had been a barracks there since 1794 and that in the 1930s Mr Bailey had worked on developing his eponymous bridge right there. It was adaptable for any width of crossing or weight of vehicle and some of the bridges are still in use today around the world. I also liked the dog behaviour business.
