The Shanks Millennium Bridge over the River Nene at Stanground Washes is a fully off-road link between Peterborough and Whittlesey for cyclists, horse riders and pedestrians.

Slightly awkward access if approaching from the road - a short stretch of gravel then a sharp right angle turn on to the bridge. The bridge itself is funky though.

Beautiful view over the river, can be flooded on average 2 days per week in the flood season ( end of September to mid April) need to check riverlevels.uk (Stanground Sluice) right before leave, saved mine on the home screen for easy access.
