Bow Bridge is a 15th-century Packhorse bridge over the River Brue in Plox, Bruton, Somerset, England. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building, and Scheduled Ancient Monument.

The bridge may have been built as a link between the former Bruton Abbey, and its Court House in the High Street. On the parapet on the western side of the bridge the remains of a carved shield can still be seen. It had acquired the name Bow Bridge by 1707.

The narrow bridge of three arches is 42 inches (1,100 mm) wide. The main arch of the bridge is built from chamfered blocks of dressed stone.

The bridge was restored after floods on 12 July 1982.
