Hexham Bridge is a medieval stone bridge crossing the River Tyne at Hexham in Northumberland. The bridge was constructed in the early fifteenth century, with the earliest recorded reference to its building dating to around 1407, and represents an important example of late medieval bridge engineering in northern England. The structure originally comprised multiple arches of varying span, though it has been substantially rebuilt and repaired over subsequent centuries, particularly during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The bridge remains a significant feature of Hexham's townscape and continues to form part of the principal crossing of the River Tyne in this historic settlement.
