Statement of Interest

The first Crieff Bridge, only the second thrown over the River Earn, was built during the 1690s with funds from "the vacant stipend of the parish, in the interval between the suppression of Episcopacy in 1690, and the re-admission of a Presbyterian minister in 1699" (Statistical Account).
