Old travel Blog photograph of Castle Bridge in Forres, Moray, Scotland. Castle Bridge in Forres crosses the Burn of Mossett, a relatively small river which flows into the vast tidal basin of Findhorn Bay to the north. The bridge was originally built in 1823, and re-erected in 1908, presumably to make it wider. The bridge has six castellated turrets, hence its name, one marking each corner of the structure, including the short causeways across the parkland on either side of the river, and one on each side above the central pier. That on the northern side bears the towns coat of arms, while that on the south has a date plaque.
