Contact the RE museum at Brompton Barracks mate - they might well be willing/able to help. I am pretty sure they have one on display there as well so I could grab some detailed photos if needed?

Why trouble the REs when one of our own members built one a few years ago.
You could always go to www.drawingdatabase.com and type in "Churchill AVRE" there is a Centurion Tank on the database but not the AVRE variant but you will certainly get the Bridgelayer information from the Churchill AVRE plan.

Try this site:
https://www.the-blueprints.com/blueprin ... ey_bridge/
I often use it for blueprints

This might be more like the one you're working on...

I gave details for the Drawing Database because unlike the Blueprints.com site it is free although it does not include any dimensions but it is easy to extrapolate the measurements as long as the Centurions dimensions which "Old Tanker" already has. is transposed over the Churchill.

Hi will send you some pictures of my Cents when I can work out how to load them on the site,I have not done a lot on these forums before I am still bit of a learner.one is a cent and the other is a cent using the action x turret whilst making one base with all the suspension and wheels
I doubled up and made two basis

Thanks everyone for your prompt replies. The second link given by Pete Wright is the model I want to build. Interestingly the method of construction is the same as my method, ie using base metals - brass, aluminum, steel, etc. I will have to make contact and try to bleed information from the modeller!

I'm new to this site, but will try to work out how to upload some photos. Any pointers in the right direction will be appreciated.
