Scope and Content This close view focuses on the three bridges on the northern side of Inverness. The Friar's Bridge was constructed to carry the A82 from east to west of the river without going through the centre of the town. It was opened in 1986. The Waterloo Bridge is on its right. This is known locally as the Black Bridge which was the name given to the original crossing at this point - a wooden bridge built in 1808. It was replaced by this more permanent structure in 1895-96. Next to that bridge is the railway viaduct, opened in 1990 to replace the Telford bridge which was swept away in a storm in 1989. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
