Landacre Bridge, Medieval road bridge in Withypool and Hawkridge, England
Landacre Bridge spans across the River Barle with sturdy stone construction and traditional engineering methods that demonstrate medieval bridge building techniques.
The bridge earned its Grade II* listed status and scheduled monument designation due to its importance in connecting communities across the River Barle through centuries.
