Bridge over the Seaton Burn, Holywell

This delightful narrow bridge is built mainly of stone supported by an arch of brick. When the first Ordnance Survey Six-Inch map of the area was published in 1865 there was no bridge at this point shown on the map. However, by the time the 1897 Ordnance Survey map was published this bridge was shown on the map.
