This is the same bridge as that alluded to in the Statistical Account, and built in 1803, only that the wooden arches, being found unsafe, were removed about 15 years ago and stone ones supplied instead. Previous to the erection of this bridge the river was crossed by the "Forked Ford" which is about half a mile up the river. |
