OS 6" map, (1959)

The remains of an old stone bridge of one arch which formerly carried the road to Perth by Dunning before the turnpike was built in the early 19th century. Its narrowness suggests a pack horse bridge. The present bridge was built after 1736.

Name Book 1859; OSA 1796.

St Serf's Bridge, which is still suitable for farm vehicles or pedestrians, is 3.0m wide with no side walls. The name is still known locally.
