Designed by John Adams, Pulteney Bridge is one of only four in the world to support shops.

It is named after Frances Pulteney, who inherited the Bathwick estate in October 1767. Rather than continue travelling to her estate by ferry, a bridge would be constructed to link the main city to Bathwick.
