Scope and Content Teviot (Roxburgh) Viaduct, Roxburgh, Roxburghshire This 14-arch masonry viaduct was designed by John Miller for the North British Railway's branch from St Boswells to Kelso. The viaduct is in the estate of the Duke of Roxburghe, which may account for the beauty of its construction. This view shows the viaducts 14 spans, from the south west. The four spans at each end are over land, and are semicircular. The six in the middle, partly over the Teviot are segmental and skewed. They are also on a curve. This is a viaduct of exceptional refinement, intended when it was built to be part of a major through route, a function it never fulfilled. The piers of the river spans support a wrought-iron footbridge with lens-shaped trusses. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
