A medieval stone arch bridge spanning the River Dart in Dartmoor National Park, Devon, with three arches and a humpbacked profile, its weathered stones bearing the scars of centuries of exposure to the elements.
Small single track bridge with passing places for walkers when horse and carts passed in ancient times. This has been off my radar for 40 years, but having driven over it recently I was reminded of the jumps we made into the water some 8-10 metres below, on a cold, wet miserable January day in 1983. This was to clean the muddy coveralls we used for potholing as part of our basic training in the Junior Leaders Regiment, Royal Armoured Corps. I was so cold and shocked after hitting the water that I couldn't recite my name, rank and number! The river Dart is a beautiful beast, but you'll need to actually walk in the nearby woods as there are no river walks from the bridge. Disappointing really as it's lovely.
Staff were on point & the rooms were good enough for what I paid for. Appreciate the service I received, praise to the team & Jade as well.
Bridge & it's location lovely, seems to be popular with kayaker's to - if that's your thing
It worked as expected, I got from one side of the river to the other without climbing steep banks or getting wet feet, would deffinatly use again and recommend to anyone wanting to cross the river dart there.
Beautiful. Worth to stop.
Lovely place, apart from all the cars parked on double yellow lines ( most got parking tickets). Kids and dog loved the water
