The bridge was recorded as part of the Threatened Builsdings Survey of Dumfries House in 2010. It was designed by John Adam in 1760 as part of the main approach to Dumfries House from the north. Since the bridge was recorded the original balustrade has been restored and the bridge repaired. For more in formation see RCAHMS publicartion Dumfries House , an Architectural Story.
