Description

Weycroft Bridge is a road bridge over the River Axe, built around the 17th century. It is constructed of stone rubble and features two semi-circular arches with cutwaters between them. At the south end, there are two smaller floodwater arches, one of which accommodates the mill stream. The bridge has a parapet with plain stone coping.
