Respryn Bridge, Medieval road bridge in St Winnow, England
The granite and stone structure spans the River Fowey with five arches, featuring a central arch from the original 15th-century construction.
The bridge gained military significance during the English Civil War when King Charles I crossed it in 1644 after Cavaliers captured it from Roundheads.
The structure represents medieval engineering methods, connecting the important medieval towns of Bodmin and Lostwithiel through a vital transport route.
Stone bollards installed in 2019 prevent large vehicles from crossing the bridge, protecting its structure from potential damage.
The bridge stands near the location of a former 12th-century chapel dedicated to St Martin, which served travelers seeking safe passage.
