Great Bradley in 1855
This map represents the proposed boundary changes: The blue bordered regions are the Petty Sessional Divisions and the red are the proposed Parliamentary divisions. For the latter Great Bradley is proposed to be part of Sudbury and the Petty Sessional Division is stamped on this map as Bisbridge. This is a spelling mistake: it should be Risbridge (although some digitisation of books by Google will read Risbridge as Bisbridge!).
