Tips

This wonderful old bridge dates back to the 17th century and is made from local Purbeck stone. The bridge got its 'old' in the 1930s, when it was replaced by the new Iford Bridge, and the original closed to traffic.

Not only is this a pretty bridge but it's a good spot to look up and down the river, watching kayakers and moorhens alike, paddling about.

Caution if the foliage is overgrown, lots of stinging nettles and other prickly things. Not recommended in shorts.
