All that remains of a well disguised road and rail bridge that originally spanned part of the Wigtownshire Railway. One of the bridge arches can still be seen, the other is a bit more difficult to spot. The two chimneys left of picture belong to the former Station House. The Machars has a wealth of hidden railway memorabilia that proves to be a challenge to find.
