Fingle Bridge - Drewesteignton
Situated on the upper reaches of the river Teign where it passes through deeply wooded slopes is this beautiful old bridge. The only purpose for the bridge appears to be to provide access to and from the now derelict mill. The bridge is just wide enough to take a car over with care to a carpark, toilets and grass picnic area alongside the river. Alternatively park at the local hostelry 'The Anglers Rest' and enjoy a meal or cream tea beside the river. Pleasant, gentle strolls can be taken along the river banks in either direction, but unfortunately the footpaths become unsuitable for wheelchair users a short distance from the bridge. Nonetheless this is a spot to visit time and time again throughout the changing seasons. Don't forget your camera and if you are an artist, take your easel. Moderate Disabled Access.
