Description

Vete Mill Bridge is a footbridge from the 19th century that spans a small stream, which is a tributary of the River Teign. It is constructed from roughly-shaped blocks of granite, with vertical granite abutments. The bridge is supported by three long slabs of granite placed side by side. In the mid-20th century, galvanised iron railings were added as a parapet.
