Withypool is a quiet village in the Barle valley with a distinct upland character. Along the banks of the River Barle grow the willow trees that give Withypool its name. The village is home to a characteristic six-arch stone bridge, which was built roughly 100 years ago to replace an old packhorse bridge up river.
