High Bridge is a medieval bridge structure located in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, dating from the twelfth century. The bridge spans the River Witham and is notable for retaining its original stone construction, which demonstrates the engineering techniques of the Norman period. It features distinctive narrow arches and substantial masonry work characteristic of medieval river crossings, and notably supports buildings upon its span, a feature that reflects its importance as both a crossing point and commercial thoroughfare in medieval Lincoln. The bridge represents a significant example of Norman engineering and remains integral to the historic street pattern of Lincoln's city centre.
