The Withypool Bridge is an arch bridge that carries a small road over the River Barle at Withypool in Somerset, England. It is a Grade II* listed building. [1]
The red sandstone bridge was built in the 19th century. [1] It replaced an earlier bridge 100 metres (330 ft) upstream of the current site and is therefore shown on some maps as "New Bridge". [2] [3]
The bridge was restored in 1866 and again in 1983. [1]
