Bow Bridge is a 15th-century packhorse bridge over the River Brue in Plox, Bruton, Somerset, England. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building,[1] and Scheduled Ancient Monument.[2]
The bridge may have been built as a link between the former Bruton Abbey, and its courthouse in the High Street.[1] On the parapet on the western side of the bridge the remains of a carved shield can still be seen.[2] It had acquired the name Bow Bridge by 1707.[3]
The narrow bridge of three arches is wide. The main arch of the bridge is built from chamfered blocks of dressed stone.[4]
The bridge was restored after floods on 12 July 1982.[5]
