Twizel Bridge, Medieval stone road bridge in Duddo, England

The Twizel Bridge crosses the River Till with a high rounded arch supported by five chamfered ribs and features squared stone construction throughout its structure.

Built in 1511, the bridge served as a crossing point for English troops under Thomas Howard during their strategic maneuver at the Battle of Flodden in 1513.

The bridge stands as an example of Tudor engineering excellence, recognized through its Grade I listing status and designation as a Scheduled Ancient Monument.

The structure spans 90 feet across the River Till, connecting the communities of Cornhill-on-Tweed and Duddo in Northumberland's northern region.

For three hundred years, this bridge maintained the record for the longest stone span of any bridge constructed in England.
