What is recorded here
New Bridge carries road traffic across Castleton in Aberdeenshire, though no exact building date has been written for it. The stones and span still perform a simple human job: moving people, carts and thoughts from one bank to the other. Any visitor must respect that the road belongs to the living town, not to curiosity alone.
