Description

Circa 1790. Single span bridge with pronounced hump, and
long parapetted approach. Rubble, dressed rubble segmental
arch ring and parapet cope.

Statement of Interest

An "excellent road", begun in 1792 and nearly finished by

1794, built by government from Dingwall to Ullapool at cost

of $4,500. (Much deteriorated by 1835) Inverlael Bridge now

bi-passed by re-aligned A835 road; before this the approaches

had been flattened.
