Selham Bridge

Single Lane, hump back, over the River Rother, north of Selham.

In 1791 an Act of Parliament gave authority to the Earl of Egremont to make the Western Rother navigable from Midhurst down to its junction with the Arun below Shopham Bridge. This is one of three bridges in this stretch of river dated to that time.

This is the finishing point for the Rother Raft Race
The road at this point is prone to flooding.
