Potter Heigham Bridge is a medieval brick bridge crossing the River Thurne in Norfolk. The bridge dates from the fifteenth century and represents an important example of late medieval bridge construction in East Anglia. Its narrow span and characteristic brickwork are typical of Norfolk bridges from this period, and it remains substantially intact despite centuries of use. The bridge continues to serve as a vital crossing point in the Norfolk Broads landscape, maintaining its historical function within the local drainage and navigation system.
