Statement of Interest

This bridge is commonly said to have been built by Wade,

but there is no record of him having carried out work

between Stirling and Crieff, nor is it likely that he

would have made the bridge only 5'6" wide, There is no

indication at the haunches that it was ever wider. Major

Caulfield improved the road in 1742.
