Description
The Fasnakyle Bridge is an early 19th century, high single-span rubble bridge built over the River Glass. The bridge springs from natural rock abutments. It features a dressed rubble arch ring and a low parapet with a cope. The approximate span of the bridge is 45 feet. The River Glass forms the boundary between the parishes of Kiltarlity and Convinth at this location.
