Named Bridge Street because this is where the road crosses the River Hiz. The River Hiz could be crossed without the water rising very far above the ankles for most of the year. At one time it would have been a main route from the centre of Hitchin to Luton. Nowadays, the road is closed at the top to the west.
Year photo was taken: circa 1914
