Facts and practical information

Godmanchester Chinese Bridge is a landmark of the town of Godmanchester, Huntingdonshire. It is a pedestrian bridge that spans a mill stream on the River Great Ouse and is, as the name suggests, built in an ostensibly Chinese style. The original was constructed in 1827 to designs by the architect James Gallier, but it fell into a bad condition and was replaced with a replica by the local council in 1960. ()
