Category C Group Category Details 100000020 - See Notes Date Added 23/02/1971 Supplementary Information Updated 04/11/2010 Local Authority Scottish Borders Planning Authority Scottish Borders Parish West Linton NGR NT 16154 56180 Coordinates 316154, 656180 — Circa 1800. Single span, segmental-arched rubble bridge with roughly dressed voussoirs over River North Esk at N end of Carlops village, providing access to adjacent Patie's Mill. — part of a B Group with 'Carlops, Mill Lane, Patie's Mill' (see separate listing). A simple, single-arch rubble access bridge, built around 1800 in conjunction with nearby Patie's Mill (converted for residential use 1964-5 - see separte listing). The interest of the bridge is heightened by its association with the mill, contributing to the picturesque gorge setting. The waterfall to S which powered the earlier mill wheel also adds to the industrial context. The North Esk serves as parish boundary, so the former mill sits within the neighbouring parish of Penicuik. Change of category from B to C(S) and list description updated at resurvey (2010).
