Think I've found the answer, on this 1857 map of Glasgow.

Best bet is it's the structure of an old dam across the Kelvin. It matches up with the location on a modern map.

I didn't think it was related to the older lower bridge: it's a little north east of where that was and the orientation doesn't match.

It's definitely not related to the tunnel that runs under Great Western Road, for the same reasons.
