Description
Hump-backed. Segmental-arched. Rubble. Low parapets broken in places. (Historic Scotland)
This bridge spans the Clachaig Water immediately upstream from the existing road-bridge serving the A 83. It is constructed of rubble masonry and comprises a single segmental-headed arch having a span of 7.8m. It is probably of late 18th- or early 19th-century date. (RCAHMS)
