Scope and Content Dunglass Viaduct, Dunglass, Berwickshire and East Lothian This is one of Scotland's finest early railway viaducts, built for the North British Railway's main line from Edinburgh to Berwick. Like the later and larger Ballochmyle Viaduct, by the same engineer, John Miller, it has a large central span. This view shows the main span of the viaduct from the north, with the two approach spans at the south east end and two of the three smaller spans at the north west end. This viaduct was opened in 1846, and was one of the finest railway structures built up to that date. The central span is 41.1m long and there are two smaller spans on one side and three on the other.
