Stepping stones

__NOTOC__
Stepping stones or stepstones are sets of stones arranged to form a simple bridge or causeway that allow a pedestrian to cross a natural watercourse or pond, or a garden's water feature where water is allowed to course between stone steps. Unlike other bridges, they have no spans. Stepping stone, along with log bridges, are likely to be the oldest bridge types. They are often built by hikers and disarranged during periods of high, fast water.
==Historic stepping stones==

The Drukken Steps in the Eglinton Woods of North Ayrshire in Scotland were a favourite haunt of the poet Robert Burns and his companion Richard Brown, whilst the two were living in Irvine from 1781 to 1782.〔Love, page 60.〕
The name "Drukken" steps derives from a person's gait as they stepped from stone to stone whilst crossing the Red Burn. Seven or more stones were originally set in the Red Burn which was much wider than now (2009).〔King.〕
Burns himself used the Scots spelling "Drucken" rather than "Drukken".〔(Scotch Drink )〕 The ruins of the Drukken Steps are now found in the Eglinton Country Park.
