Upgrading the last pallet bridge

With all the wet weather it recently occurred to me I still haven't replaced the last pallet bridge, and when clearing the drain I noticed a wee cave in and debris building up with a few branches mixed in with the clay. So the decision has been made to remove the pallet bridge and replace it with my 2 remaining railway sleepers.

Track & ballast removed, now the digging resumes.

Much later that day, found one sleeper, cannot seem to find the other one.

The original pallet bridge in place, very optimistic roadbed in the background but had to start somewhere.

After clearing up what I could reach without crawling inside.

A reminder of what happens to a blocked drain, and a sign from god 5" is to small.
