Description

Single-span metal lattice footbridge, c.1900, over the River Camcor in the grounds of Kinnitty Castle. Lattice girders and diagonal braces. Timber deck to bridge. Bridge accessed from raised stone platform and accessed up steps.

Appraisal

Located in the woods adjacent to Kinnitty Castle, this is one of several footbridges built to span the River Camcor. Though no longer in use, the bridge survives as a contrast to the suspension bridge upstream.
