Bridges of Scotland

[Bugbear]

I was just reading a little bit about "Forth Bridge" in Scotland; very interesting.
That would be fine to discuss and post pictures, so go ahead, but it also leaves me wondering about the old wooden bridges* of Scotland?
So what are your favorite Scottish bridges, and what about them do you enjoy?

*I thought of this because I remember walking across the wooden deck of the Royal Gorge suspension bridge in US Colorado as a little kid and looking down through the spaces between the planks. Very scary.

Marvellous idea! Here are two of my favourites - extremely different. Anybody recognize them?

That top one is amazing, Father Bill. It almost looks breakable. I think I'd be scared to walk across it but I sure would love to see it. It's beautiful.

It's very romantic - legend of star-crossed lovers here - anybody recognize it with that clue?

Two stone ones, the Telford Bridge at Tomatin



and the Wade Bridge at Aberfeldy.



A footbridge over the Findhorn



and three others over the Findhorn.

Both the Forth Bridge and the Tay Bridge are magnificent miracles of engineering and I can't wait to cross them both on a train!

I never thought bridges were remotely cool....till I saw this thread.

Scotland can make anything cool ;)

I forgot to bring up stone and masonry bridges; thank you, ThistleDown.
