Description
This late 18th century single span rubble bridge leads to Freswick House and features a long approach causeway from the west. The bridge has a roughly dressed rubble segmental headed arch ring and cope. There is a small corbelled mural chamber within the thickness of the approach causeway, which has a small entrance with chamfered jambs on the north side. Above the entrance, there is a carved stone Sinclair coat of arms, which may have been re-used.
