Development History
1985: Strathclyde Regional Council seeks demolition consent. 30 May 1991: The Cumnock Chronicle reports that farmers G. and G. Templeton and J. Howatt are seeking permission to demolish. SCT and the Architectural Heritage Society of Scotland have both objected. 22 August 1991: The Cumnock Chronicle reports that councillors have refused demolition consent. Repairs are estimated at £33,750.
October 2009: Inspection finds the bridge in a neglected state. Several trees and large saplings are growing from the masonry.
29 October 2014: Inspection finds some works have taken place to restrict some of the vegetation growth to the bridge, otherwise it remains in much the same condition as seen previously.
