Bidford Bridge is a medieval bridge crossing the River Avon at Bidford-on-Avon in Warwickshire. The structure dates from the 14th century and is constructed of stone with multiple arches, representing a significant example of medieval bridge engineering in the region. The bridge would have served an important crossing point on a major route through the Midlands, facilitating trade and communication between settlements. Its survival largely intact, though with later repairs and modifications, makes it valuable evidence of medieval construction techniques and the strategic importance of river crossings in the medieval landscape.
