The Cambus O’ May Bridge is a suspension footbridge which spans the River Dee. It was built in 1905 and rebuilt in 1988. It had to be repaired following substantial damage in a 2015 storm but re-opened in 2022.

An interesting architectural bridge, that said, this bridge has gates at both ends that are not bike-friendly and are a nightmare for a heavily loaded bike.
