Irish Guards Memorial plaque, Joes Bridge
This is on a small stone plinth beside the canal. The crossing here is known as the De Groote Barrier and the bridge was taken one week before Operation Market Garden began. The orginal bridge was destroyed by the Belgians in 1940 in order to delay the invading Germans. They replaced it with a heavy trestle structure which in turn later became as it is here. Date: 2000
