The Luib Bridge carries the A939 across the River Don between Corgarff village and Corgarff Castle. It is a two arch bridge, the eastern arch being smaller and perhaps designed as a flood arch. However, the river now flows through both arches, albeit only a small channel under the smaller arch, with the pier stood on a grassy island in the channel. The bridge was built in 1830 by a local land owner, and carries a single track roadway albeit with no traffic controls on this quiet road. Black and white painted barriers line the approaches on both sides of the bridge.
