Bow Bridge
Recommended by
Overview
This narrow 15th-century stone bridge across Mill Beck carried an old packhorse route to nearby Furness Abbey. The bridge is only 10 feet (3 metres) wide, yet is still a good example of a late medieval three-arched bridge.

About the area
Cumbria's rugged yet beautiful landscape is best known for the Lake District National Park that sits within its boundaries. It’s famous for Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, and Derwent Water, ‘Queen of the English Lakes', but other lesser-known areas in the south, such as the Lune Valley and the coastal towns, are secret gems of wide cobbled streets and rolling hills.
