POST BRIDGE is a hamlet of Lydford, 6 miles north-east from Princetown, with a small mission chapel dedicated to St. Gabriel, and used during the week as a National day school. A parsonage house is now (1901) in course of erection. The East Dart river is crossed here by a very ancient bridge, of two arches; it is constructed in a primitive fashion of granite slabs and is still in use, and close by is an ancient clapper bridge.

National School (mixed), erected in 1869, for 100 children; average attendance, 25.
