Old Photograph Suspension Bridge Forres Scotland


Old photograph of the suspension bridge over the River Findhorn by Forres, Moray, Scotland. The suspension bridge was opened in 1831 to cross the river at the west end of the town. This bridge was replaced by the current bridge in 1938. Due to high volumes of traffic passing through the town centre, a bypass was built in the late 1980s to reduce congestion in the town centre. The A940 connects Forres with Grantown-on-Spey, Aviemore and the south directly without the requirement of driving via Inverness. The B9011 connects Forres to Kinloss Barracks and Findhorn Bay. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
