Title

[edit]

The title of this article is incorrect. The actual name of the Bridge is 'Swilken Bridge', so named offer the Burn or Stream it crosses. A quick search in google maps will identify the burn and the correct spelling. There is some discussion locally as to spelling variations, I'm not sure when, where or who made this error but the spelling is as detailed above. I accept it may also be referred to as the Golfers Bridge, however this is only a nickname . Xbigcamx (talk) 19:22, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Even St. Andrews residents going back a century and the R&A spelled it "Swilcan" - see this and this. Not a significant issue. Zefr (talk) 19:36, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
