Fingle Bridge, Devon

Fingle Bridge is an early 17th-century road bridge across the River Teign near Drewsteignton, Devon. The bridge is of three spans, each with a segmental arch that springs from vertical abutments and piers. The two piers have pointed cutwaters which rise to the parapet where they are stepped out to provide refuges. It originally carried the main road from Drewsteignton to Moretonhampstead over the River Teign, but is no longer a through route. It is within the council area of Teignbridge (Devon).
Historic England Grade II* Listed 1146775.
