Located on a path between Goldwire Lane and Fitzroy Close, the medieval footbridge spans the ditch which once provided the outer defences of the faubourg of Overmonnow, and through which the waters of the River Monnow could be diverted in times of threat. A faubourg was the area just beyond the town walls. The bridge was Grade II* listed in 1974 and is also a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
