Descriptive Gazetteer Entry for Rumbling-Bridge

Rumbling-Bridge, a place in Little Dunkeld parish, Perthshire, on the river Bran, 2¾ miles WSW of Dunkeld. The impetuous Bran, whose chasm is spanned here by a one-arched bridge, thunders in a sheer leap of 80 feet into a dark caldron, and is so flanked and barred by rugged rocks, and so mantled with gloom, as to present a solemnly imposing scene.—Ord. Sur., sh. 47, 1869.
