Monk's Bridge, Ballasalla, Isle of Man.

---

Monks' Bridge also known as Crossag in Manx meaning "little crossing" was built in the 1350 AD by the Cistercian monks of Rushen Abbey (est 1134 AD). The pack-horse bridge allowed the monks to pass over the Silverburn River near Rushen Abbey in Ballasalla so they could travel to their northern farms. It is believed to be the best example of medieval bridge in the British Isles.
