Luib Bridge carries the B973 over the River Don. Built in 1830, it is of rubble construction and consists of two semi-circular arches, the smaller of which is designed to act as flood relief.
The parapet of the bridge bears a panel, inscribed LUIB BRIDGE/ BUILT BY SIR CHARLES FORBES/ OF NEWE AND EDINGLASSIE MDCCCXXX.
