Old Shoreham Toll Bridge
The crossing between Old Shoreham and Lancing (across the Adur) was intitially made by flat bottomed barge.
In 1781, a bridge was built (for which tolls were charged).
A new railway bridge was built to the south in 1847 (and remains today).
The old toll bridge was closed to vehicular traffic in 1967.
