Statement of Interest

Now by-passed.

Upper plaque inscribed 'Built by General Grant of

Ballandalloch 1800. G. Burn Arct.'

Lower plaque inscribed 'Flood line 4 August, 1829'.

George Burn (probably also contractor for Bridge of Avon) was

contractor for Spey Bridge, Fochabers (1803) and Lovat

Bridge, Beauly (1813), both designed by Thomas Telford.

At this point the river rose 23' during the 1829 floods.
