Croyland Bridge

“A strange triangular bridge at Croyland was probably built for or by a religious body. This structure stands at the confluence of the Welland, the Nyne, and the Catwater drain; three pointed arches, having their abutments at the angles of an equilateral triangle, meet in the middle, giving three watercourses and three roadways.” — Encyclopedia Britanica, 1893
