Wye Bridge, Hereford

Spanning the River Wye, it was constructed in 1490 to replace an earlier timber bridge dating back to the twelfth century.

[2] During the 1645 Siege of Hereford in the English Civil War it was the scene of heavy fighting between the English Royalist defenders and the Scottish Covenanter besiegers.

A gatehouse that stood on the site was severely damaged and was later demolished in the eighteenth century.
