Description
Millhouse Bridge is a roadbridge, constructed in 1827 under the direction of John MacCracken, as recorded on an inscribed stone. It features a single, wide segmental arch spanning the River Annan. The bridge is entirely built of red ashlar, predominantly stugged, with rusticated voussoirs. A band course and polished ashlar parapet coping are also present. The abutments are slightly battered, and the bridge has shallow terminal piers at the curved approaches. The design demonstrates an influence from Telford's Glasgow-Carlisle road bridges. The main span is approximately 30 metres. Millhouse Bridge was initially listed as Category B, but was re-graded to Category A on 4 October 1988, in recognition of its scale and design. Further information can be found in the New Statistical Account, page 192.
