Passing back into Leicestershire , it flows through Muston and Bottesford , where there are a number of bridges . At the end of Church Street , Fleming 's bridge is a double-arched grade II listed medieval bridge , now just used by pedestrians , which was built for Samuel Fleming , who was rector in the village between 1581 and 1620 . At Devon Lane , there is a ford , besides which stands a single-arched brick bridge , with two holes passing through the spandrels , and iron railings in the centre of the parapet . It was built in the early 19th century . Beyond the village , the river is crossed by four railway bridges , only one of which is still in use , carrying the line from Grantham to Nottingham . A fifth bridge , located in fields to the north of the village , consisting of three brick arches , carried the Newark to Leicester railway line over the river . It was opened in 1860 , and ceased to be used for railway traffic in 1960 . The centre arch collapsed after heavy rain in 2007 , and the whole structure has been replaced by a single steel span , resting on the remains of two of the piers
