Scope and Content Old Bridge of Dee, Kirkcudbrightshire This is a 4-span masonry bridge, with the semicircular arches and massive piers with triangular cutwaters characteristic of the period. It carried the main east-west road through Galloway until Threave Bridge was built in 1825. This view shows the massive construction of this rubble-built bridge, and the narrowness of its carriageway. Though bypassed for 175 years, the bridge still carries local traffic.
