The Packhorse Bridge at Deeping St. James was built in 1651, just after the English Civil War.

The bridge is narrow, with refuge ledges either side of the bridge for pedestrian safety. A marker on the side of the bridge indicates the high level of the water during the floods of 1880.

Take care here. The bridge has a blind crest and is narrow (cars width) so be prepared to stop and don't try and squeeze by
