Description
Bruntaburn Archway is a rubble Gothick arch that spans the road to the west of the former Spottiswoode House, which has since been demolished. The arch is topped with two tiers of pinnacles and features much-weathered, carved plaques on the flanking piers, although the inscriptions are now illegible. The archway is overgrown and largely concealed by ivy.
