Description

Probably 18th century, narrow single span bridge to N of bridge carrying NE drive to Cammo House (listed separately). Rubble.

Statement of Interest

A-Group with Cammo House, Bridge, Quadrant Walls, Boundary Walls, Stable Block, Knoll, Walled Garden and Water Tower. On a plan of the New Saughton Estate of 1805 there is a small break in the wooded boundary that corresponds to the position of the bridge. No path is demarcated on this map leading to the bridge so it probably served as a small footpath onto the estate. By 1805 the estate had been decreased, so it is possible that at sometime prior to the sale of the adjoining land the bridge was a link to neighbouring fields.
