OK, time for another clue.  The bridge was over a part of a Napoleonic fort, but the bridge itself was younger.

Quick one here, I'm off to the hospital to get this blasted broken arm seen to.  The clue is that this is a bridge abutment, where, and once you've worked out where what is it over?

From the louvres I'd guess that there are bells behind there, so probably an Anglican Church?
