The bridge, built about 1896, carried the Lanarkshire and Dumbartonshire Railway over the River Kelvin [https://canmore.org.uk/site/197365/glasgow-old-dumbarton-road-railway-bridge]. To the left was Partick Central Station, while to the right was the Yorkhill tunnel. The bridge crosses the river at the point where there is a natural fall, which in the 19th century also acted as a weir for the adjacent mills.
