Old Photograph Bridges River Conon Scotland


Old photograph of the bridges over the River Conon by Conon Bridge near Dingwall, Scotland. The River Conon, Scottish Gaelic: Conann, begins at Loch Luichart, and flows in a south easterly direction to be joined by the River Meig at Scatwell before passing through Loch Achonachie. It is joined by the Black Water at Moy Bridge, and the River Orrin at Urray, before flowing past Conon Bridge and into the Cromarty Firth, and thence the Moray Firth and North Sea. Conon Bridge village was effectively founded after the construction of a bridge across the River Conon in 1809 by Thomas Telford in his role with the Commission for roads and bridges in the Highlands.
