Trinity Bridge is the unique triangular bridge that stands at the heart of the English town of Crowland. Originally it spanned the rivers that flowed through the town, although now the rivers have been re-routed and no longer flow anywhere near the bridge. The current bridge dates to the 14th century (built between 1360 and 1390) and replaced previous wooden bridges. The earliest known mention of the bridge is by Ethelbald of Mercia in 716.
