Scope and Content Old Bridge of Urr, Kirkcudbrightshire This is a two-span rubble bridge with semicircular arches and triangular cutwaters. The central pier is less robust than in earlier practice. This view shows the bridge from the Urr parish side. Differences in the character of the stonework show that the bridge was originally humpbacked. The grouping of bridge, corn and sawmills, and carding mill her is unusual and attractive. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
