This road bridge crossed over the original course of the Dundee and Newtyle Railway north of Eastfield Farm, east of Auchterhouse. Few road bridges remain on the course of the line replaced by the various deviations in the 1860s, this may be the only one still carrying a road.
This part of the original alignment was closed in 1860 when replaced by the Balbeuchley Deviation (Dundee and Newtyle Deviations (Scottish Central Railway)).
