Full Description

A ruined bridge was noted by ARCH's Evanton Wartime Remains project in 2013. The bridge on a lane to Braemoray from Novar Drive was built using wartime concrete portals stretched across the burn. The portals would have come from the WRNS’s quarters on Novar Drive. The bridge has been demolished, and the portals are lying to the side and in the burn.
