This pipe bridge crosses the River Clyde to the W of Clyde Iron Works. The river here forms the boundary between the parishes of Rutherglen (to the W) and Old Monkland (to the E).
The location assigned to this record defines the centre of the span. The available map evidence suggests that the structure extends from NS c. 63600 62010 to NS c. 63646 62010.
