15th Century Ludford Bridge...

Location: Ludlow, Shropshire, England.

Ludford bridge crosses the River Teme between Ludlow and Ludford and is historically important as it was the site of the War of the Roses, largely bloodless, Battle of Ludford Bridge, which took place on 12 October 1459, and resulted in a setback for the Yorkists. Although this seemed to be a triumph for the Lancastrians at the time, they had given away their advantage within six months.
