Description
Thurso Bridge, designed by engineers Macbey and Gordon from Elgin, was completed in 1887. This four-arch bridge features a long southeast approach causeway with a small arch that spans a mill lade. The structure is built of coursed rubble with tooled ashlar dressings. It has four keystoned segmental-headed ashlar arch rings, with triangular cutwaters that rise as canted buttresses, terminating in facetted caps that are incorporated into a tooled ashlar coped balustrade. A string course runs along the bridge, and there are four pairs of cast-iron lamp standards mounted on alternate buttress caps.
