Description

Millhouse Bridge, built in 1827 by contractor John MacCracken, is a road bridge featuring a single wide segmental arch over the River Annan. The bridge is constructed entirely of red ashlar stone, primarily stugged, with rusticated voussoirs. It has a band course and polished ashlar coping on the parapet. The abutments are slightly battered, and there are shallow terminal piers at the curved approaches.

Local climate

Millhouse Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,290 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 94% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 85% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 57 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 97% of listed buildings. Of these, 32 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
