Description
The Toll Bridge was built in 1773 using Portland stone. The central section, which was opened as an iron swing bridge, is dated 1892. At both the south and north ends, there are stone arches. The central part likely featured a Dutch type timber raised platform before it was replaced in the 19th century.
