Wye Bridge, Hereford, Medieval road bridge in Hereford, England.
The sandstone road bridge extends across the River Wye with six bays, featuring intricate stonework and pedestrian refuges within their parapeted tops.
Built around 1450 to replace a timber structure from 1100, the bridge sustained damage during the 1645 English Civil War siege of Hereford.
The Grade I listed bridge stands as a representation of medieval engineering methods and serves as a connection between Hereford Cathedral and the southern districts.
Modern traffic flows across the bridge while pedestrians can use the walkways to observe the water levels, which normally range between 0.10m and 3.30m.
The bridge construction combines different architectural periods, with some bays dating to the 15th century and others showing 17th and 18th-century modifications.
