Excellent thought ? It set me off researching this picture from 1971 and whether it was at the Griff Arm as I originally had it classified, or the Newdigate Arm, as the bridge and the Nice Mr Google now seems to suggest. And all before breakfast, too.

The entrance to Griff Arm, Ladybridge. Bridge now gone of course.

The second picture is the Newdigate Arm, all that's left of it. 
ETA just rechecked my photos it is the entrance to Newdigate, now a winding hole.

@PeterScott and @Ray T what’s the conclusion, Peter’s photo is just inside the Griff Arm?

yes, the shape of the bridge arch does it
