Corbridge Bridge, Stone road bridge in Corbridge, England
Corbridge Bridge is a stone road bridge featuring seven arches that span 146 meters across the River Tyne. The structure displays sturdy stonework with pointed arches and parapets on both sides.
The original bridge was built in 1235 and rebuilt in 1674 to maintain essential trade connections between Newcastle and Carlisle. Since then it has played a key role in the region's transport network.
A sundial is mounted on the eastern side of the structure, showing traditional English architectural craftsmanship. This detail reflects the building methods and practical skills of earlier times that remain visible today.
Traffic flows through a single-lane roadway controlled by traffic lights, connecting local areas. Visitors should note that the main A68 route now passes through Styford Bridge instead.
The bridge survived the devastating flood of 1771 that destroyed many other bridges in the region. Its superior construction methods allowed it to endure this extreme natural event.
