Abstract:		 Historic building recording and archaeological monitoring and recording were undertaken by South West Archaeology Ltd. during the repair of Oare Bridge. The single-span, hump-backed stone bridge, with parapets and a semi-circular arched head is a Scheduled Monument and a Grade II Listed Building. It is possibly of 18th century origin replacing an earlier ford, and is built with a mix of random local stone rubble with a lime mortar bonding. The parapet of the bridge has previously been extensively repaired (with cement bonding) and the whole bridge extensively re-pointed with cement (although now partially blown). A photographic survey was made in advance of and during the repairs to the bridge and the removal of the road surface and four shallow trenches were excavated at the edges of the road, both north and south, of the bridge. No significant deposits were revealed and no finds were recovered.
