Lower North Water Bridge, Category A listed bridge in St Cyrus, Scotland
The Lower North Water Bridge spans the River North Esk with seven segmental arches, featuring triangular cutwaters and decorative elements on its central structure.
Built between 1770 and 1775, the bridge represents the engineering expertise of John Adam, John Smeaton, and Andrew Barrie during the 18th century.
The bridge stands as a testament to Scottish engineering, incorporating local masonry techniques with scrabbled stonework for piers and dressed arch-rings.
The structure carries the A92 road across the River North Esk, connecting the communities of Montrose Parish in Angus with St Cyrus Parish in Aberdeenshire.
Relief-carved dates from 1774 appear beneath the central span, while commemorative plaques adorn both parapets near the southern end.
