Old bridge at Ratho Station

The bridge that carried the Ratho to Ratho Bridge road over the railway. Now disused as a road and road bridge, but still used as a footbridge. Thanks to Simon Sweeney, who wrote to say that, once closed to traffic, this old road was known as the 'curly wurly' or 'bendy wendy' to the young local skate boarders who used the bridge and winding road on the hill.
