Broken wooden bridge across 9m gap over a waterway

Back in November 2025, WMS was hired to replace a bridge at Bisham Abbey National Sports Centre.

Bridge area after removal of old bridge. Modular Cube working platforms in the water to allow for bridge access

Our team tore down and disposed of the old bridge, which had become no longer safe to use.

Over the course of 3 days, our talented team constructed a fantastic timber bridge across the 9m gap. The client opted for a similar construction as a replacement, using Douglas fir, which is a great choice due to its strength, durability and resilience when exposed to the elements.
