Hibaldstow Bridge

Hibaldstow Bridge

Hibaldstow Bridge is an iron arch bridge that spans the River Ancholme, near the villages of Hibaldstow, in North Lincolnshire, and North Kelsey, in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire. A plaque mounted in the centre of the bridge reads "Erected By JTB Porter & Co. 1889 Lincoln".

The last part of the single track road leading to the bridge from North Kelsey, known as Starham Road, is not asphalted and can be dangerous during adverse weather conditions as it runs on top of the embankment. It is, in places, badly potholed. Peculiarly, The AA "Route Planner" service still recommends it as the best route between the two villages, instead of choosing the longer but most sensible alternative through Brigg. On maps, the riverside stretch of road is either not marked, or shown as being of minimal quality
