Scope and Content Poldullie Bridge, Aberdeenshire This bridge was built in 1715 by John Forbes of Inverernan. It has a single semicircular rubble arch and a pronounced hump. This view shows the bridge from the south. The reflection shows how completely semicircular is the span - a rarity. This bridge is very similar in design and construction to many military road bridges, which may therefore have been representative of contemporary practice, rather than being innovative.
