Chollerford Bridge, Stone bridge in Humshaugh, Northumberland, England

The Chollerford Bridge spans 90 meters across the River North Tyne with five round arches supported by triangular stone cutwaters.

Robert Mylne constructed this bridge in 1785 to replace an earlier medieval structure that was destroyed during the severe floods of 1771.

The bridge holds Grade II listed building status and functions as a scheduled monument, reflecting its importance in English architectural heritage.

Traffic flows through a single lane controlled by traffic lights, with designated refuges positioned along the bridge for pedestrian safety.

The bridge structure incorporates gabled coping and a distinct band below the parapet, with cutwaters that double as pedestrian shelters.
