Dating back to the 14th century, this historic arched stone bridge spans the River Wye in central Bakewell. Displaying traditional medieval craftsmanship, it remains in active use, carrying both vehicular traffic and pedestrians across the water. The surrounding riverbanks provide picturesque views, making it a scenic location to spot local wildlife such as ducks and swans.
