  • The Bridge was completed in 1936 and it's middle section used to open, to allow large ships underneath, on their way to Alloa or Stirling. The bridge was sealed in 1988 as no more large boats sailed that far up the Firth. The bridge was the first crossing over the River Forth, south of Stirling. The Bridge also marks the point where the River Forth becomes the Firth of Forth and carries category A listing with Historic Scotland. The bridge is due to be replaced in 2008.
