Archaeology Notes

NS56SE 1783 59665 62650

Location cited as NS 5967 6266.

The bridge carries Polmadie Road (which here forms the B763 public road) over the Glasgow suburban portion of the West Coast Main Line to the W of Polmadie engine shed (NS56SE 2157). It depicted but not noted on the 1967 edition of the OS 1:1250 map, and is not cited by J R Hume (1974).

The location cited defines the centre of the span. The available map evidence suggests that it extends from NS c. 59652 62639 to NS c. 59676 62666.

Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 14 December 2005.
