    A truly iconic sight on Dartmoor which usually finds itself on the itinerary for most visitors.



    There has been a bridge here since the 1300s, possibly earlier. However, the first written record of the bridge only appears from 1655. The bridge's slabs are over four metres long and two metres wide, meaning that a small car can easily pass. Access from the road is no longer possible since the construction of a newer, wider bridge.

      Ancient bridge across the river, a lovely spot for lunch.

        Interesting looking old bridge, worth checking out. Can cross by foot.
