What is recorded here

Inveraray Castle Estate, Aray Bridge, spans a narrow gap as an 18th Century road bridge attached to an 18th Century wall. It is not a display feature; it is a working joint between lands, built to carry people, carts and weather across without stopping the estate's movement. The castle gives the place its name, but the bridge gives the place its function.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Inveraray Castle Estate, Aray Bridge as Road Bridge (18th Century), Wall (18th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Inveraray Castle Estate, Aray Bridge, was built in the 18th century as part of the Inveraray Castle estate, which was developed by the Campbell family, Earls and later Dukes of Argyll. The bridge and associated structures are important as they reflect the expansion of the estate and the influence of the Campbells in the region during the Scottish Enlightenment period.
