My problem is I need to modify the messages before passing them on. As far as I'm aware, bridges don't do that - but then I'm a newbie when it comes to bridging!

Well, I'm not sure what ebtables can do.

If you can modify the routes on A and B (ie route A via C on B, B via C on A), then you can use iptables to modify the packet in various ways, or even DNAT to redirect the packets to a local port.
