Comments :
This bridge spans the uppermost reach of Loch Don about 5km SE of Craignure. It is a plain segmental-arched structure of rubble with slab voussoirs, the span being 10.7m and the height of the arch above the water 3.8m. The roadway has a width of 3.7m within parapets 0.4m in thickness. The bridge was probably built about 1790, when the road from Grass point to Aros was constructed at the instigation of the 5th Duke of Argyll. [RCAHMS]
