Reedham Swing Bridge, on the site of a Victorian swing bridge, is still in use at Reedham, Norfolk, England. It carries the Wherry railway line, between Norwich and Lowestoft, across the River Yare near Reedham railway station.

The current bridge dates from 1902 to 1903 prior to the doubling of the track. The bridge
