I would strongly suggest using a routed network in stead of a bridged network. Don't forget that if you create a vpn bridge between 2 networks you're actually creating 1 big broadcast domain. i.o.w. all broadcast packets sent on site A will be forwarded to site B and vice versa. If you're using Windoze on your network this can be a lot of traffic. Unless you have a Windoze fileserver or domain controller which needs to be used by both sites there is not much point in doing so.
You will likely be better of with a routed network (e.g. 192.168.1.0/24 on site A and 192.168.2.0/24 on site B). This will also prevent a local administrator from accidentally using an ip-address from the other site.

Do you really want a bridged network
