Stoke Bridge, Road bridge in central Ipswich, England
The Stoke Bridge spans the River Orwell with two parallel structures, allowing vehicles to cross in both directions between the north and south parts of Ipswich.
The first recorded crossing at this location dates back to 625 AD, with the current bridge structure being erected in 1924 and expanded with a second span in 1982.
The bridge represents a significant crossing point that contributed to Ipswich's development as the oldest continuously inhabited English town, marking the original settlement's foundation.
The bridge serves as a primary connection between central Ipswich and the southern districts, handling substantial daily traffic flows for both vehicles and pedestrians.
Near the bridge stands a preserved K6 red telephone box from 1935, designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to commemorate King George V's Silver Jubilee.
