Fun facts about the beautiful Bideford bridge...and the perfect way to explore it!

The medieval Bideford Long Bridge.
Facts : Did you know … 🤔

The original Bideford Long Bridge was built in the late 13th century.
It was a wooden structure (made from oak wood) that crossed the River Torridge and connected the town of Bideford to East-the-Water.
Unfortunately, this bridge was destroyed by a severe flood in 1472, and a new bridge was constructed between 1474 and 1475 using local sandstone.

The new bridge was a significant engineering feat for its time and was considered one of the most impressive structures in the region, with its 24 pointed arches.

The bridge was a vital transportation link for goods and produced, enabling farmers and merchants to transport their goods across the river and to markets in Bideford and beyond.
Over the centuries, the bridge underwent various repairs and modifications to maintain its structural integrity and ensure it continued to serve the needs of the community.
This includes widening the bridge and adding lamps to light the bridge at night.
The newly widened and strengthened bridge continued to serve the town well as a link between its two halves and a tourist attraction.

The Bideford Long Bridge is always a highlight of passing under one of the 24 arches on the Downtider or Uptider Guided Tours, and the great thing is you can choose your own arch to paddle under 🙂
“Just pick an arch “ !!! 🙌
It’s even more exciting on a spring tide 😂

We all love a bridge to paddle under, and provides a fun and memorable experience 🫶🏼

We have been privileged to host some incredible weddings at Hallsannery this year! Meeting the most lovely folk, creating fabulous memories. Here's what our beautiful couple had to say "Hallsannery House gave us the freedom to create our perfect wedding in the most beautiful of settings with all our favourite people in the world. The weekend could not have been more perfect & everyone has fed back how brilliant the venue was & perfectly suited our needs.
Making the decision to get married in the dining room only added to the occasion - it was a bit of a squeeze but intimate & so memorable" (photos courtesy of the super talented Snapdragon photography)

Using the old stables adds a magical touch to Gorgeous!

This is such a lovely review from the wonderful Mr & Mrs Pipkin 🥰
It was a pleasure to capture your day!

"Well, where can I even start?! Toby is, without a doubt, the best person to capture your big day.
His photographs are completely stunning. We also recieved an amazing taster of some of the images so quickly after the wedding and we were just blown away.
All of our guests loved him and we are so grateful not only for an amazing collection of photographs of the most incredible day. But also for his humour, patience, boundless energy and for making everyone feel so at ease.

11/10 Toby… thank you so much!"
