Hercules Bridge is a brick arch bridge which crosses the River Granta on Debden Road in Newport, Essex. It is named after the former Hercules Inn, which sits on the west bank of the Granta, on the south side of Debden Road, next to the bridge.


The bridge is in a weakened state, and in 2020 investigations took place into the future of the structure[1].
