What is recorded here

Scone Palace Grounds hold a small road bridge spanning the Catmoor Burn, yet no date or builder remains attached to the stones. The water still moves beneath the deck while the palace looms nearby, suggesting the bridge has carried carts, boots and quiet conversations for generations without praise. Perfection maps the point, but memory has forgotten the name of the person who first crossed it.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Scone Palace Grounds, Bridge Over Catmoor Burn as Road Bridge (period Unassigned). 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
