Wilton Bridge, Road bridge in Bridstow, England.
The six-span red sandstone bridge stretches 85 meters across the River Wye, connecting the communities of Wilton and Ross-on-Wye through segmental arches.
Constructed under authorization from 1597, the bridge opened in 1599 and underwent significant modifications in 1914 with concrete reinforcement and widening work.
The bridge features a stone sundial from 1718 commissioned by Jonathan Barrow, carrying an inscription about the passage of time and eternity.
The structure carries the B4260 route over the River Wye while providing access points to riverside walks and local accommodation facilities.
During the Civil War, one of the bridge's arches suffered destruction, leading to subsequent repairs that became part of its structural evolution.
