The Palladian Bridge at Wilton House in Wiltshire, England, is a covered bridge built in 1737 that exemplifies the ornamental follies popular in eighteenth-century English country house gardens. Constructed in the Palladian style—characterized by classical proportions and symmetry derived from Andrea Palladio's Renaissance principles—the structure serves as both functional bridge and architectural ornament within the gardens. Now a Grade I listed building, it remains a distinguished example of Georgian aesthetic ambition applied to garden design.
