Quay wall 40 metres to north west of north east end of Wadebridge Bridge

The quay wall located 40 metres northwest of the northeast end of Wadebridge Bridge is a Grade II listed structure. It consists of remains of quay walls dating from the 18th century, although it has earlier origins. The walls are made of slatestone rubble, primarily built in vertical courses, with horizontal slatestone piers forming the wall along Bradford quay on the northeast bank of the River Camel.

While the original warehouses on the quay have mostly been replaced with 20th-century galvanised buildings, part of the North Cornwall Railway station, constructed in 1895, still remains. The River Camel was navigable for vessels up to sixty tons from Padstow to Wadebridge, and there was a dock that could accommodate twenty barges. Both Bradford quay and the Town Quay on the opposite bank were used for unloading various materials, including coal, slates, lime, bricks, timber, and later cement. After 1834, when the first steam railway in Cornwall was established between Wadebridge and Bodmin, sea sand was transported up the river from Padstow to Wadebridge and then carried inland.
