    Built in 1824 by Dundee engineer John Justice, this 19-meter iron suspension bridge is the oldest of its kind in Scotland and served as a prototype for a larger version at the Haughs of Drimmie. Featuring a sheep gate at one end, it was likely built to help children from Auchenleish cross the River Isla to reach school. Damaged by extreme weather in 2021, it has since been repaired. Previously, a ford behind the manse allowed passage along the Coffin Road, used to transport coffins from Kilry to Glenisla Graveyard, but frequent spates have rendered it impassable.
