Abhainn Cuileig Footbridge

From Graces Guide

1880s The bridge was erected serving part of Sir John Fowler's Braemore and Inverbroom Estate. Gleann Mo´r Footbridge's deck is carried on twin light-arch lattice trusses of wrought-iron or steel 14 in. deep with similarities to the tension ties at the Forth Bridge.

The bridge has 55 ft span and is about 5 ft wide. It crosses the wild gorge of Abhuinn Cuileig, a tributary of the Broom which it joins below Corrieshalloch Gorge.

2007 The opinion was expressed that it was a worthy candidate for refurbishment.
