The Grade II-listed bridge crosses the River Tone between Tone Green and Bradford-on-Tone. That's a lot of Tones. And the bridge has been here a lot of years too, thought to date back at least to the 15th century, possibly longer. Lying in a particularly tranquil spot, this is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and has two, picturesque arches. Several footpaths pass nearby, two up and down the riverbanks and more fanning out in different directions.

The southern terminus of the West Somerset Heritage Railway, visiting this historic station feels like stepping back in time.
