Welcome to Dunford Bridge

Dunford Bridge is a small village located in South Yorkshire, England. It is situated on the edge of the Peak District National Park and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village is named after the bridge that crosses the River Don, which was built in the 18th century. The bridge is a popular spot for walkers and cyclists, as it provides access to a number of footpaths and cycle routes.

One of the main attractions in Dunford Bridge is the Trans Pennine Trail, which runs through the village. This 215-mile trail stretches from Southport on the west coast of England to Hornsea on the east coast, passing through some of the most beautiful countryside in the country. The trail is popular with walkers, cyclists and horse riders, and provides a great way to explore the area. There are also a number of other footpaths and bridleways in the area, which offer a range of different routes for walkers and cyclists.

Dunford Bridge is also home to a number of historic buildings, including the Grade II listed Dunford Parish Church. The church dates back to the 12th century and is a beautiful example of Norman architecture. Other historic buildings in the village include the Old Corn Mill, which was built in the 18th century and is now a private residence, and the former railway station, which is now a private house. Overall, Dunford Bridge is a charming village with plenty to offer visitors who are looking to explore the beautiful countryside of South Yorkshire.
