This article is about the bridge near Sutton St. James in Lincolnshire.

.

Clifton's Bridge carries the B1165 across the South Holland Main Drain, west of Sutton St. James Lincolnshire.

The bridge carries two lanes of traffic and has a paved footway on either side of the road. It is of concrete construction, and an inscription in the concrete on the eastern parapet reads "Clifton's Bridge - Erected by Holland County Council 1930". The bridge is a replacement for an earlier bridge on the site, which is marked on earlier maps.

The origin of name is unclear, although census records show a number of Cliftons living in Sutton St. James during the 1800s.
