012.09 | The name of this Bridge is sometimes given three ways, as "Holm Bridge" , "Holmforge Bridge" , and "Holmford Bridge". The name " Holm" is taken from a natural Holm which is upon both sides of the Calder, west of the Bridge. The second way of using the name is from a Farm in the Holm in Dalziel Parish. The third name, upon the personal authorities quoted, is supposed to be from a Ford which was in the River before the Bridge was made, and from the name "Holmford Check Point" appearing on a notice Board at the corner of the Parish Road going east to "Brigbrae Mill", there is reason to think the proper name of the Bridge is as given in old Estate Map. The Surveyor of Roads does not know the proper name, which he believes to be derived from the Ford. The name commonly used is "Holm Bridge". It is a County Bridge. |
