The bridge over the River Medway is thought to date from the 14th century although the middle span is later. Upstream from Rochester, it was the next bridging point across the Medway. It has now been closed to traffic but still makes an attractive approach to the village for pedestrians, with the Church of St Peter and St Paul on its hill dominating views. The Medway Valley Walk crosses the bridge.
