Details Remains of suspension bridge over the River North Esk, built in the mid-19th century and now derelict. It is a two-span footbridge over a deep gorge, with a tall bull-faced centre pier rising from the river rocks. The suspension rods radiate from arched wrought-iron work at the centre pier and abutments direct to the decking. It crosses into Aberdeenshire (see NO57SE0101 in the Aberdeenshire HER).
