Fenteroon Bridge
Fenteroon Bridge is a very sturdy version of an ancient form of bridge known as a Clapper Bridge built out of granite slabs spanning piers in the river. The exact age is not known though it is estimated to be some time in the 17th or 18th centuries as the engineering is impressively heavyweight and this has allowed it to be adapted for use as a road bridge. The strong bridge would have allowed heavy loads to be brought from the moorland villages into Camelford for sale in the market.
