The Kylesku Bridge


The Scottish coastline has many penetrating sea lochs. Travelling around them can mean detours of very many miles - at this crossing about 100 miles. In the early 1800s a rowing boat ferried people across. In 1976 that the Maid of Glencoul became the first vessel capable of carrying fully loaded commercial vehicles. The Kylesku Ferry was unusual in being, for much of its life, free, The bridge was built in 1984 and has been described as one of the most beautiful in the world.
