(Location cited as NH 688 891). Railway bridges, Rosskeen, built by 1863 for the Inverness and Ross-shire Railway. An interesting group of three underbridges. The westmost [NH66NE 26] is a single semental arch over a minor road, with rustcaited voussoirs and wing-walls almost at right-angles to the spandrels. In the centre is a similar bridge [NH66NE 28] over a burn, and the eastmost [NH66NE 29] is an ornamental bridge with an armorial plaque, over the drive to House of Rosskeen.
