  • The Bridges of Scotland
    THE BRIDGES OF SCOTLAND By James Macnaughton INTRODUCTION No one who has visited the country described in Hamish McCunn’s evocative tone poem as “The Land of the Mountain and the Flood” can deny that its spectacular and very varied landscapes prove that it is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. As indicated, the two main elements involved are the ancient mountains and the rainy climate. The latter has resulted in countless thousands of streams and rivers flowing down from the high tops to the sea coasts, and these have had a major effect on the lives of the inhabitants, because trying to cross them, particularly when in spate after heavy rain, could be very dangerous and over the millennia many lives were lost. To ease travel throughout the country fords or ferry boats were used where applicable, but obviously the more permanent and safer alternative was a bridge, and it is these ingenious and vital structures and their effect on Scottish history which I would like to look at in all their varying sizes, shapes and materials, some merely practical, others very beautiful. Bridges were and are so important that many towns and villages were named after them: Carr Bridge, Bridge of Don, Spean Bridge, Bridge of Earn, Coatbridge and most evocative of all – Rumbling Bridge – among many others. Of the thousands existing, I am going to choose a selection of the more interesting, showing how the ingenious and skilful bridge builders overcame seemingly impossible natural obstacles. THE ORIGINAL WOODEN STIRLING BRIDGE 1297 Figure 1. Artist’s concept of wooden Stirling bridge.
