Hexham Bridge, Road bridge in Hexham, England.
The stone bridge spans the River Tyne with nine segmental arches, connecting the town of Hexham to the North Tyne valley through its main thoroughfare.
After multiple failed attempts to build a crossing, including structures destroyed by floods and structural failures, architect Robert Mylne completed this enduring bridge in 1793.
The bridge stands as a Grade II* listed building and scheduled monument, representing the engineering capabilities of late 18th-century British architecture and construction methods.
The structure provides essential access to the A69 trunk road and serves as the primary connection point between Hexham's town center and surrounding communities.
Three previous bridges at this location failed within short periods, making this fourth attempt by Robert Mylne the first successful long-term crossing of the River Tyne at Hexham.
