Bridge at St Ives, Cambs, England

192 / 365
This bridge over the River Great Ouse was constructed in the 15th Century and incorporates a small chapel half way across. Although this is now one of only four such bridges in England, bridges of this type were more common at the time it was built. The chapel was also a toll house. The St Ives bridge was on the main route into the town from the south, although it is now only used by pedestrians and cyclists.
