Lea Bridge is a neighbourhood and electoral ward in the Clapton area of the London Borough of Hackney (formerly Hackney, London and Hackney, Middlesex before 1900).

The area it takes its name from a bridge built over the River Lea in 1745, and the Lea Bridge Road which leads through the area and across the bridge. The bridge also gives its name to a ward and old village across the river in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. Lea Bridge on the eastern bank is redirected to Leyton, Essex.

Within Hackney, Lea Bridge Road forms the customary boundary between Upper Clapton and Lower Clapton (both redirected to Place:Hackney, London, England).
