Description
East Bridge is a bridge likely built in the 18th century, featuring a single segmental arch that is slightly humped, spanning over Deskry Water. It is located just east of Rippachie Farm and Mill, at the eastern boundary of the parish. The bridge is constructed from snecked rubble with voussoirs and has a flat-coped parapet. There is a squared rubble base beneath the arch, along with a single cutwater on the southwest side and slightly splayed approaches.
