Coverack Bridges is a small hamlet located in the county of Cornwall, England. Situated approximately 4 miles south of the town of Helston, it lies within the civil parish of St Keverne. The hamlet takes its name from two stone bridges that span the river that flows through the area.

Coverack Bridges is a picturesque and tranquil location, surrounded by beautiful countryside and rolling hills. The bridges themselves are historic structures, dating back several centuries. They are constructed using local stone and feature arches that provide passage for both pedestrians and vehicles. The bridges not only serve as a practical means of crossing the river but also add charm and character to the landscape.
