Certainly the only other explanation I can think of, but it doesn't quite stack up. It's a bit elaborate for it to be just for personnel to reach the flood-weir.
It's not a bridge for getting equipment across, or livestock, it's a footbridge. At some point it was public, I think.
Also, if you look closely at the street view image, you can see that there appears to be a faded sign with a walking-man with a cross through it - the kind of sign to see where land owners want to indicate no public right of way. It's just beneath the private property sign.
Phil, have a look at the documents associated with this planning permission for a replacement Environment Agency footbridge (Catterall Footbridge). Is this the location you're talking about?
