A Scottish landscape painting showing the Old Packers Bridge from Carrbridge up by Aviemore. It can be seen from the main road so attracts a lot of visitors. Originally built for foot passengers and horses in 1717. It had suffered a fair bit of damage in 1829 by the river in spate. I remember "testing my manhood" over it as a teen-ager and as fragile as it looks now must have been very well built to have stood so long. I believe it cost £100 to build, pretty good value really. |
