Description
Four-arch road bridge over the Avonmore River, built c.1990 replacing an earlier bridge swept away in 1986. The bridge is constructed in rubble with dressed granite voussoirs. The segmental arches rise from rubble piers that may have been part of the structure of the original bridge. The parapets consist of rubble-built piers with simple metal railings between.
Appraisal
This late 20th-century road bridge is constructed in a traditional form, using multiple arches as opposed to a single span. Traditional materials have also been used.
