Field Visit (12 November 2014)
Very little is now visible of this road bridge which is depicted crossing the River Clyde immediately SE of Rowantree Pool on the 1st edition of the OS 25-inch map (Lanark 1864, Sheet XLVII (Crawford)). The abutment on the NW bank of the river measures 4m in breadth by 0.3m in height in which two courses of stonework are visible and it is approached from the NW by a ramp 15m in length and up to 0.2m in height. Less well preserved traces of the bridge can also be seen on the SE bank of the river.
