Horrabridge is a village and civil parish in the West Devon district, in Devon, England. The village lies approximately north of the city of Plymouth and south of Tavistock, and is within the Dartmoor National Park. In 2021 the parish had a population of 2,199.
The village sits on the River Walkham, a fishing river famous for its salmon. The village's name may have been taken from the 15th-century packhorse bridge which remains the only vehicular route from one side of the village to the other, and featured in the children's television programme Bagpuss. The bridge is a Grade I listed structure.
