Rochester Bridge, Road bridge in Rochester, England
The Rochester Bridge spans the River Medway with three parallel structures: two road bridges and one service bridge carrying utilities and cables.
The Romans constructed the first Rochester Bridge around 43 AD as part of Watling Street, establishing a vital connection between London and Dover.
The Bridge Chapel, constructed in 1383, maintains its tradition through annual commemoration services held on All Souls' Day.
The Rochester Bridge Trust, founded in 1399, maintains the crossings using income from land endowments to ensure free passage for travelers.
The Victorian bridge section, completed in 1856, featured three cast iron arches designed with swing mechanisms for river traffic passage.
