Description

Langham Bridge is a road bridge over the River Yealm, dating from the 17th or 18th century, and was widened in the 19th century. It is constructed from granite ashlar and is set at an angle. The bridge features two round arches with ring arches and cutwaters on both sides. Above the cutwaters, which include small granite seats, there are parapets with refuges. The parapets have chamfered coping and are splayed over the abutments.
