Description

Probably 18th century or later. Single segmental-arched footbridge over Core Burn. Roughly squared coursed rubble with ashlar soffits and narrow voussoirs, narrowing toward parapet of roughly squared blocks.

Statement of Interest

Rare survival of a well-detailed sturdy bridge with some vegetation threatening long term stability. Built to serve the laird in the functioning of the estate, it carries the old 'lairds way' path over the burn at Drybridge Village.
