Lostwithiel Bridge
There are records of a bridge in Lostwithiel from the 12th Century and there is also record of a mediaeval chapel and toll house on the town side of Lostwithiel bridge. The current bridge dates from the 15th Century - the 5 pointed arches nearest the town are from this period. The parapets were added in the 17th Century and the bridge was extended in the 18th Century with the round arches on the far side from the town.
