Nice easy nano over the River Camel.

The Old Bridge in Wadebridge is said to be built on wool. One of the public houses in Wadebridge is actually called "the Bridge on Wool". However no one is actually sure if this means that the bridge is actually physically built on sacks of wool as a foundation. What is much more likely is that the bridge was built on the profits of the wool trade. However when the bridge was extended some wool was found in one of the core samples taken, although some people say that the core sample was just a hoax. When the bridge was first completed tolls used to be paid for the maintenance of the bridge.

Recently, in 1994 the bridge underwent a refurbishment to change the stone in the pavement and to create a cycle track along the length of the bridge. (with thanks to Wikipedia)
