Abbots Bridge over the River Lark
Abbots Bridge over the River Lark
The Abbey evidently felt the need for defensive walls, like a medieval town. At the point where the walls crossed the River Lark they doubled as a bridge and this survives. On the other side of the wall Eastgate Street passes over a modern bridge.
