Newbridge Inn, Historic inn in Newbridge, Scotland
Description
Newbridge Inn stands at the corner of Old Liston Road and Bridge Street, displaying traditional Scottish architecture dating from 1895. The building holds Category C listed status and the premises are no longer in operation as a public house.
History
The inn was established in 1683 on land owned by Archibald Hope of Raukellour and became an important stop for travelers. It stood along the principal route connecting Edinburgh and Glasgow throughout its long history.
