The circular piers adjacent to Guard Bridge old bridge (NO41NE 3) are the remains of a railway girder bridge on the St Andrews branch railway from Leuchars. It is uncertain whether these piers were those constructed for the original timber bridge designed by Thomas Bouch and built by Kenneth Mathieson of Dunfermline in 1852. The line was closed in 1969.
