Carrington Bridge

Carrington Bridge is an early 19th-century road bridge built over Redside Burn. It is a single span with a round arch constructed from yellow sandstone rubble, with brick repairs visible. The arch is formed of convex, moulded voussoirs with decorative impost details and a moulded extrados. A coped rubble parapet runs along the bridge, featuring a dentil moulded base. The southeast elevation has a blank panel, while the northwest elevation displays a tooled panel that reads "CARRINGTON BRIDGE". Shallow refuges are incorporated into the upper section of the advanced piers that flank the arch. Curved wing walls are present, and the eastern side of the southeast elevation has a battered support. The bridge is shown on both the 1852 and 1892 Ordnance Survey maps and is described in C McWilliam’s The Buildings of Scotland: Lothian Except Edinburgh (1978).
