Torphichen Bridge, mill, lade and trackway is an ancient mill complex located approximately 200 metres north-east of Torphichen in Linlithgowshire, Scotland. The site comprises the structural remains of a mill building alongside its associated lade, or water channel, which would have supplied power to the mill machinery, together with the trackway providing access to the installation. The monuments date to the medieval period and represent the infrastructure of grain milling that would have served local agricultural communities. The lade and trackway preserve evidence of the hydraulic engineering and communication routes that characterised rural medieval Scotland.
