Information

The Clydesholm Bridge is a 17th Century stone bridge over the River Clyde at Kirkfieldbank. It was built in 1699 and served as the town's main bridge until it was superseded by the new Kirkfieldbank Bridge built in 1959.

The bridge crosses high over the river in three stone arches, the two pillars standing on islands in the stream.
