DescriptionThe New Bridge - geograph.org.uk - 1020388.jpg
English: The New Bridge Looking across the Ayr towards the fine bow-fronted buildings on the south side. The double bow-fronted building was the town house of Alexander Stevens, the mason who over-viewed the construction work in 1786-88. These houses were saved from redevelopment by a local conservation group. The original bridge was so severely damaged in 1877 by storms and floods that a replacement had to be built. Completed in 1879, the new bridge has retained many of the attractive features of its predecessor. (Sources: "Discovering Ayrshire" by John Strawhorn, and "Ayr Stories" by Dane Love.)
