Kingsbridge is a town in Devon, England, in the South Hams district, with a population of about 16,000. It is at the very north of the Kingsbridge Estuary (an extreme example of a ria).
The town is quite isolated—no major trunk roads go near it, though the A379 and A381 do, and it has no railway station (the branch line via South Brent, opened in 1893, was closed down in the 1960s as part of the Beeching Axe). It has, however, been the main market town in the area for centuries.
The parishes include Kingsbridge (Kingsbridge and Dodbrook), West Alvington, Churchstow, Aveton Gifford, Loddiswell, Woodleigh, Morleigh, Malborough, Salcombe, South Huish, Galmpton, Thurlestone, Buckland-Tout-Saints, Charleton, Sherford, East Allington, Blackawton, Slapton, Stokenham, Chivelstone, East Portlemouth and South Pool.
Kingsbridge had its own council, Kingsbridge Urban District Council which of course was responsible for Kingsbridge itself.
Kingsbridge is a neighborhood in the Bronx, New York.
It is bounded roughly by 240th Street and Van Cortlandt Park on the north, the Jerome Park Reservoir to the east, Kingsbridge Road and Marble Hill to the south, and a large hill on the west demarcating Kingsbridge from the Riverdale neighborhood.
