Description

Yarrow Bridge is an early to mid 19th century structure featuring a broad single segmental arch that spans the Yarrow Water. The bridge is constructed from squared and snecked rubble, with voussoirs forming the arch. It has a mutuled course that transitions into a flat-coped parapet, which is flanked by flat-coped piers. The approaches to the bridge are curved and topped with semicircular coping.
