Sometimes known as Whitley Abbey Bridge (though there was never a monastery here), this bridge once carried the Coventry to London road over the River Sherbourne. It has long since been bypassed and is now blocked to motor traffic. It is Grade II listed and is dated to the 16th century by the listing at the Historic England site https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1076652?section=official-list-entry .
