Wetherby Bridge is a medieval bridge crossing the River Wharfe at Wetherby in West Yorkshire. The structure dates from the 15th century and represents an important example of late medieval bridge engineering, serving as a vital crossing point on the road network of northern England. The bridge is constructed of stone and comprises a series of arches spanning the river, with cutwaters designed to break the force of water flow. It remains substantially intact and continues to function as a significant thoroughfare, testament to the durability of its medieval construction.
