Description

Darling Bridge, located in Chatelherault Country Park, is an early 18th century structure featuring a single span with a round-headed arch that crosses a burn in a deep ravine. The bridge is constructed of stugged ashlar, although some sections have collapsed, exposing a rubble core. Notably, the bridge does not have a parapet.
