==Bridge renumbering==
Most bridges carried different numbers during the BR era to those now used by the SVR in preservation, for example, [[Trimpley Private Road Bridge]] was numbered 19 by BR and is now the SVR’s Bridge 14. Differences arise because the BR era numbers for the Severn Valley Branch began at Hartlebury while the SVR era numbers begin at Kidderminster. Also two bridges have been built since the closure by BR.
Certain bridges still carry traces of their BR number as noted below. Bridge numbers between Bewdley and Bridgnorth are as follows:
