A medieval three span bridge over the river Brett. It probably dates from the 14th century. It is built with stone blocks with pointed arches with spans of 3 m. (10 ft.). In 1750 the stone arches were extended with brick-work on the upstream side. http://www.transporttrust.com/heritage-sites/heritage-detail/toppesfield-bridge-hadleigh
