Scope and Content Montrose Bridge, Angus This bridge was built to resemble in profile its predecessor, a notable early suspension bridge. It is, however, a reinforced-concrete cantilever bridge, designed by Sir E Owen Williams. This view shows the bridge from the south east. The two double cantilevers have a short suspended span between them. This bridge belongs to the period in the 1920s and 30s when reinforced concrete was a comparative novelty, and designers were experimenting with different forms. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
