The bridge crosses the River Soar navigation. Located only a stone's throw from the bridge is the Soar Bridge Inn, a traditional pub popular with boaters and walkers attracted by the picturesque scene.

Traffic lights both sides. Nasty little climb up towards the village that will take the wind out of your sails!
