Background

History

The aqueduct was constructed in the 1840s to carry water from Monikie Burn to Stobsmuir Reservoir. A second water main with a diameter of 15 inches was laid in 1862 however the expanded aqueduct proved inadequate. In the 1870s it was superseded by a new water supply from the Loch of Lintrathen. In July 2019, the aqueduct was closed and fenced off after sagging was observed. Part of the edge of the aqueduct subsequently collapsed overnight. The repaired bridge reopened in June 2022.
