Description

Leven Bridge, built by the Brandon Bridge Building Company in Motherwell in 1908, is a bowed iron whipple truss bridge. It features a single arched, riveted lattice truss supported by ashlar abutments that extend into flat-coped piers. There is a dry, flat-arched metal plate extension that continues over the pedestrian path, and the bridge has a ramped approach.

It experiences an average of 24 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 74% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 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.
