Shard Bridge
Shard Bridge is a bridge in the English county of Lancashire. It spans the River Wyre, connecting Singleton, on the southern side of the river, to Hambleton, on its northern side (an area known locally as "Over Wyre"), carrying both automotive and pedestrian traffic of Shard Road (the A588). The word shard is a Roman term for "low crossing point on a river".A History of Blackpool, the Fylde and south Wyre, Nick Moore (2018), p. 21

The original bridge was built in 1864, and it went on to replace a ferry service between Stanah and Wardleys Creek further downstream to the west. The bridge was moved a few yards downstream in 1993 when the first of its two current iterations was constructed. Formerly a toll bridge, Shard Bridge is now a free municipal crossing. References
