The Duchray Bridge, which carries the Loch Katrine aqueduct across Duchray Water, also known as the "Infant Forth" because it is the head-stream of that river. This Thomas Annan photograph is part of a series taken in 1876 and shows the 60-feet span of the bridge across the river, with the pipeline borne on cast-iron girders.
