The iron "Blue Bridge" across the River South Tyne in Haltwhistle was pedestrianised in 1972, but was once a major crossing point. Originally built in 1875, it received a major overhaul in 2003. The river is in high winter flow, almost spate conditions. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Bridge,_Haltwhistle

Looks suspiciously like a drill hole ! {i'm comparing it to the capped off holes that were used when the "Old Quay" at Whitehaven was grouted, to stabilise the structure. [shoe is about 100mm across at the widest point]. .

That is a 5ft section of a surveyor's ranging pole, that's not the deepest point. But five feet is about average overall. It's a big hole ... estimate 15' x 15' and 5' deep - although it's not square in plan. .
