Description

Auchensale Bridge is a late 19th century single-arched road bridge with a segmental span over the Locher Water. It features an unusual brick soffit and red Dumfriesshire ashlar voussoirs. The parapets and haunches are built from rubble, likely remnants of an earlier bridge, based on the masonry. The east parapet is damaged at the southern end.

Local climate

Auchensale Bridge sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,350 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 96% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 92% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 46 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 88% of listed buildings. Of these, 25 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.2°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
