Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Ferrydyke Bascule Bridge. This bascule bridge, crossing the Forth and Clyde Canal, is shown from the other side at 939735.

On its far side, a cycle route runs alongside the canal. The ruined building standing on the left was the bridgekeeper's cottage; see 1524165.

Note also the low wall that runs alongside the cycle route on the right. From that wall, some sunken ruins can be seen on the other side; these are the remains of old stables: see 1524161.

Between the ruined cottage and the stable wall, a path leads from the cycle route towards the former site of Donald's Quay, where a beacon still stands: 1493744. For a good summary of the history of this immediate area, see 961147.
