Bowman's Level Crossing (1838-1967)

Opened on the Arbroath and Forfar Railway.

Description

This was a public level crossing between Forfar North Junction and Clocksbriggs station. The railway crossed the road on an oblique angle, a gatekeeper's cottage being to the east of the crossing between the two.

The cottage has not survived but a newer house is at roughly the same location but on the former trackbed.
