Friday Bridge is a village in Elm civil parish, part of the Fenland district of Cambridgeshire, England. It is 3 miles south of Wisbech.
The ecclesiastical parish was formed in 1860 from the civil parish of Elm.
The clocktower in the village is the war memorial.[1] Friday Bridge was the site of a World War II prisoner of war camp which was converted to a hostel for migrant workers in the late 1940s.[2]
