Description

Aray Bridge, located on the Inveraray Castle Estate, was built in 1775 by Robert Mylne. The bridge features two segmental spans constructed from rubble with dressed face-work. It has a partly balustraded parapet and a central spandrel that is pierced by an oculus, along with an angular pier. The approach walls are characterized by weathered projecting copes and small posts at each end.
