    Part of General Wade's military road, built as part of an attempt to subdue the notoriously grumpy (from an English perspective, at any rate) Highland populations which has risen up in the Jacobite Rebellion of 1715, the original bridge was washed away by a storm in 1829. This one was built shortly after, and originally had no safety railing or parapets at all, which rendered it somewhat precarious, at 9 metres (29.5 ft) high.

        A photo' is mandatory. Probably best to avoid looking at the cracks in the structure from underneath.
