High Bridge is a medieval stone bridge spanning the River Witham in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. Dating from the 12th century, it is one of England's oldest bridges still in use and represents an important example of Norman engineering. The bridge is notable for its two Gothic arches and the timber-framed buildings that were constructed upon it during the medieval period, which remain among the finest examples of bridge-houses in England. Its construction and development reflect Lincoln's significance as a medieval trading centre, with the bridge serving as a vital crossing point for commerce and communication across the river.
