John Briggs used this 'C listed' property at 19 Bridgfield until earlier in 2021. It is at the south side of the bridge over Carron Water which is undergoing some flood defence works. In the recess near the blue hoarding is a milestone and below it a slightly recessed stone plaque. The bridge was built in 1781, widened in 1885 and rebuilt in 1973.
