Description

Calair Bridge, built around 1792, is a single-arched bridge featuring a small flood arch to the north and curved wing walls over Calair Burn. The parapet wall rises to a shallow triangular point at the center. This bridge holds significant historic interest and is prominently located on the road connecting Balquhidder and Strathyre. It is constructed from random rubble, with roughly squared rubble used for the parapet copes and voussoirs.
