Description
The bridge at Craighouse on Jura is a single-arch structure located on the Feolin-Lagg road. It was built under the direction of the government Commissioners for Highland Roads and Bridges, likely around 1809 or 1810, following a request for assistance with the road made around 1805. The road was primarily intended to support the cattle trade, connecting new harbours at both ends of the Jura road, as well as at Port Askaig on Islay and Keills on the mainland.
This bridge features a single segmental-arched span over the Abhainn a'Mhuilinn. It is constructed entirely of rubble and has slightly splayed parapets. The bridge remains recognizable from a view by William Daniell from 1817.
