Bridge of Earn is a village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Often referred to simply as 'Brig'. The village grew up on the south bank of an important crossing of the River Earn, whose sandstone bridge existed from at least the early 14th century, when it is known to have been repaired by order of Robert I of Scotland (1306–1329). Substantial remains of the medieval bridge survived into the 1970s, when almost all the stonework was demolished. This ancient bridge was a major landmark on the road between Edinburgh and Perth for several centuries. The village's oldest houses are to be found lining the road leading south from the site of the demolished bridge. Among them are some with 18th-century datestones.
Flood Zones, Warning Areas and Surface Water are Environment Agency maps and cover England only. Bridge of Earn is in Scotland, so they draw little or nothing here — that is where the map ends, not an absence of flood risk. SEPA’s warning areas have their own pages under flood areas.
Bridge of Earn is monitored by 1 Environment Agency river level station on the Earn, in Perth and Kinross. Water levels are updated every 15 minutes, providing real-time flood monitoring for the area.
The Earn is monitored by 1 station (Bridge of Earn). Each station records water levels continuously, with data synced to FloodRadar every 5 minutes.
No Environment Agency flood warning area is mapped within 10km of Bridge of Earn. That means the EA has not defined a warning target area here, which is not evidence the town cannot flood: warning areas exist where the EA runs a warning service, and surface-water and groundwater flooding have no warning areas at all. The EA’s register covers England only — Bridge of Earn is in Scotland, where the warning service is SEPA’s, and FloodRadar publishes its areas alongside the EA’s on the flood areas index.

No recorded flood outline within ~5 km of the Bridge of Earn town centre means no flood was mapped here, which is not evidence none happened: the Environment Agency mapped only some floods, mapping effort rose sharply after about 2000, and surface-water flooding is largely absent from this record. The Environment Agency's Recorded Flood Outlines cover England only, and Bridge of Earn is in Scotland — so an empty record here is an absence of coverage, not an absence of floods.
