Former toll house built 1814 attached to the 15th century Clopton Bridge. The 10-sided toll house dates from the early 19th century widening of the bridge.

The building has been disused for many years. No long-term use has yet been determined but some urgent stonework repairs have recently been carried out.

The bridge was originally attached to a causeway to the west. An important survival of a medieval bridge forming a significant landscape feature.

A Grade 1 listed building, now on English Heritage's "Heritage At Risk" register. (2008)
