The bridge is almost certainly Hagg Bridge on the Pocklington.

Checking with canalplan would appear to confirm.

Interestingly the pic on canalplan is labelled as being taken by 'canaldrifter' who used to post on here many moons ago. (A right grmpy old so and so if ever there was one).

 

But he used to often get up the lesser used parts of the system with his boat eg the Pocklington and the Derwent.

I know it well - this is definately Hagg Bridge.

First picture is of the River Hull at Hull Bridge, northeast of Beverley. Photo taken from Weel Road footbridge looking south.

There's a similar view on Geograph:

As I don't do Twitter I have emailed this to the ICE Library.

Good spot.

 

I was pretty sure it wasnt the Pocklington as it was far too 'river' like. It didnt look like the Derwent either and I didnt consider the Hull.

 

But should have done given the 'Humber keels' moored on the bank.

Found by a quick scan along the local waterways on Google Maps satellite view looking for a large number of moored boats on a bend.
