Between Grantown on Spey and Craigellachie, the River Spey meanders back and forth between the A95 and B9102 which run along either side of the valley. At Advie it is the B9102s turn to run along the rivers banks, with the bridge leading almost straight off the junction.

The Bridge

Advie Bridge is a concrete structure of three spans, with two intermediate piers in the water. The deck is carried on concrete beams, with concrete parapets on either side. It was built in 1922 to carry the Single track road from Advie across the river to the B9102 on the western bank. There is some graffiti on the underside of the deck which dates back to the 1930s, but seemingly nothing post war!
