Fingle Bridge, Granite deck arch bridge in Dartmoor National Park, England

The stone bridge spans across the River Teign with three arches and features triangular cutwaters that extend upward to create pedestrian refuges.

The bridge, constructed in the 17th century, served as a vital crossing point for packhorses transporting corn and wood products through the Teign Gorge.

At the north landing of the bridge, the establishment of Fingle Bridge Tea Shelter in 1897 evolved into a local inn serving travelers and fishermen.

The bridge connects to multiple walking trails within Dartmoor National Park, with free parking areas available on both sides of the structure.

The name Fingle originates from a term meaning 'to catch', referencing the river section's suitability for fishing activities.
