Bridge over Linn Burn


This bridge over Linn Burn is located on Allendale Common, about 2 miles east of Sinderhope. It dates from the late 18th century and was part of the Long Drag track, constructed for the transport of lead ore from the Allendale mines to Dukesfield Smelt Mill. The bridge is Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England.
