Description
Puslinch Bridge is a road bridge that crosses the River Yealm at the head of the creek. It dates from the 17th century and is constructed of stone rubble. The bridge features two main spans over the river and an additional flood arch at the north end, which is connected by a causeway. The arches are obtusely pointed and have recessed arch rings. On the downstream side, between the two southern arches, there is a cutwater with a refuge above it. The bridge has very low parapets. For further reference, see C. Henderson and E. Jervoise's book, Old Devon Bridges, page 22.
