Full Description
Road bridge, built in 1935 to commemorate George V's Silver Jubilee, still in use, carrying the A92 trunk road between Stonehaven and Montrose over the Bervie Burn. It replaced the 18th Century Old Bervie Bridge (NO87SW0036). It is an impressive seven span reinforced concrete bridge built on a curve, standing 20 m above the burn. Each bay is topped by a cast-iron lamp standard. The bridge was refurbished in 2008-9, after it was observed to be suffering from the effects of corrosion of its suspended and cantilever reinforced concrete support beams and half-joint elements.
