Corbridge Bridge is a Roman stone bridge that crossed the River Tyne at Corbridge in Northumberland, dating to the second century AD. Built to serve the adjacent Roman fort of Corstopitum, the bridge formed a crucial link in the military and commercial infrastructure of Roman Britain. The surviving remains consist of substantial stone piers and abutments that demonstrate the engineering sophistication of Roman construction techniques. The bridge's strategic importance lay in its role connecting the fort to supply routes and settlements on both banks of the river during the height of Roman occupation.
