Now a footbridge over the River Neet, but originally also for packhorses and carts. The section on the left can be lifted to allow the passage of boats. The bridge was formerly known as Bude Bridge, and led to Efford Mill, a tide-mill built in the late 16C by the Arundells of Trerice. (From The Book of Stratton and Bude (1980) by Rennie Bere and Brian Dudley Stamp).
