About Brig o' Balgownie
Spanning the River Don below Seaton Park in photogenic leafy surroundings, Brig o' Balgownie is Scotland’s oldest medieval bridge. Historically an ancient highway, as well as the subject of folklore and poetry, today the bridge is among the last reminders of early medieval Aberdeen. Brig o’ Balgownie dates back to 1286 and took over 40 years to complete. Made from Aberdeen’s signature grey granite, combined with sandstone, it consists of a single Gothic arch.
