Full Description
A bridge which spans the Burn of Redpath on Old Military Road from Keith to Fochabers. Its existence was unknown until March, 1987, when forestry clearance revealed it alongside a stretch of road that was continuing a known route passing over Meikle Dramlach bridge to the northwest (NJ35NE0003) and dated to 1767. It is a tall, narrow single span, field rubble bridge. It has a roughly tooled rubble arch ring and no parapet. It was noted in 1991 that it was in danger of collapse.
