Bell's Brae Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

If you are visiting Edinburgh, you might want to check out Dean Bridge, a historic and scenic structure that crosses the Water of Leith. The bridge was designed by Thomas Telford, a famous civil engineer, and completed in 1831. It is 136 meters long and 32 meters high, with four arches and a footway on each side. From the bridge, you can enjoy the views of the Dean Village, a former milling area that has preserved its charm and character.
