You may have seen or heard A British English way of saying A bridge has a low height. For vehicles to pass under. most often referred to as "headroom". Now over the past 40 years slowly replaced by International signs on all major roads and Motorways.

"low bridge height at Beckwood" the sign is mixing older and modern International systems.

The answers so far all avoided answering the question; the opposite of low height is great height.
