St Ives Bridge, Stone bridge in St Ives, England

The St Ives Bridge spans the River Great Ouse with multiple stone arches, connecting the northern and southern parts of the town.

Built between 1414 and 1425, the bridge replaced an earlier wooden structure that monks from Ramsey Abbey constructed in 1107.

The bridge features a medieval chapel dedicated to St Leger, making it one of four remaining bridges in England with an integrated religious building.

The structure continues to serve as a main crossing point over the River Great Ouse, accommodating both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

During the English Civil War, two arches on the southern side were destroyed to prevent King Charles I's troops from crossing.
