Marazion Old Bridge is an unaltered road bridge crossing the stream that flows out of Marazion Marsh. It was built in the 18th century & has unusual semi-circular pedestrian refuges, rather than the normal triangular ones. In 1837 a new bridge was built about 100 metres away as part of a new turnpike road, the Old Bridge is little used now.
Next to the bridge is a charity car park, you can leave your car here all day for £1.50. On the other side of the road is the entrance to Marazion R.S.P.B. bird reserve.
